Performance apparel is not designed for people who just sit around and knit all day. The people who wear performance apparel tend to be active. They are firefighters putting out fires in flame resistant clothes, athletes training for marathons and military personnel in extreme weather conditions organizing rescue missions. Whether your own active lifestyle is this dramatic or simply involves a lot of movement, the fact is that when you move and when you immerse yourself in extreme weather conditions, you sweat.

While sweat has no odor, when it lingers on your skin it mixes with the bacteria on the skin surface and produces an odor. While odor is not dangerous, it can be distracting and uncomfortable. Feeling as though you have an odor problem is not pleasant and it is not something you need to worry about. When you wear DRIFIRE performance apparel, you don’t need to worry about bacteria and odor.

DRIFIRE flame resistant clothing has FreshGuard, which is a registered trademark of Optimer Performance Fibers. FreshGuard is woven into all DRIFIRE clothing, where it affects the microbes that can cause odor. FreshGuard is also found in all Dri-release fabrics and DRIFIRE is a flame resistant version of Dri-release formulas. Not only does DRIFIRE offer exceptional performance apparel or flame resistant coverall, but the use of FreshGuard ensures that microbes can’t proliferate and cause odor.

There’s another way that DRIFIRE combats odor. All DRIFIRE performance apparel is designed with advanced moisture management technologies. Moisture is quickly whisked away from the skin and is released back into the atmosphere as it evaporates out of the fabric. This helps ensure that the moisture from perspiration cannot mix with skin’s natural bacteria to create odor.

Bacteria and moisture on the skin don’t just cause odor. Excessive moisture on the skin can also result in a rash and discomfort. Additionally, warmth and moisture can create a great breeding ground for bacteria and fungus, leading to athlete’s foot and other common ailments. With DRIFIRE performance apparel, you don’t allow this sort of growth which can ruin your skin’s good balance. With DRIFIRE performance apparel, you can enjoy the confidence of being dry and odor-free, no matter what activities you take part in and no matter what extreme weather conditions you face.
