100 Year T Shirt
Built with Japanese Cordura it’s 14x tougher than a regular cotton t shirt.
- Built with military grade Japanese Cordura
- Highly abrasion resistant but incredibly soft
- Fast drying and moisture wicking
Engineered with a blend of military grade Japanese Cordura and cotton, the 100 Year T Shirt is just as soft as a regular cotton t shirt, but it’s 14x stronger. The challenge for the 100 Year T Shirt was simple – build a t shirt that’s tough enough to outlive you, but comfortable enough for you to want to spend the rest of your life in. The reality of most t shirts is that after a few years they start to break down, then they’re thrown out. The 100 Year T Shirt is different. While it looks like a regular cotton t shirt and feels like a regular cotton t shirt, it’s made from a material so tough it was originally developed for military combat uniforms.
Planet Earth Swim Shorts
They stretch like an elastic band, block UV, and repel water with plant-based technology.
Technical Details
The material we’ve used was originally designed for compression gear so it’s incredibly stretchy and strong.
Hard-wearing but soft next to your skin
You probably won’t have ever worn a pair of knitted swim shorts before, but they represent the holy grail of sports gear – incredibly strong, stretchy, soft and lightweight all at the same time. By blending elastane with a super tough nylon yarn, we’ve created a unique knitted fabric. With millions of microscopic knitted loops, it manages to feel soft, stretchy and cooling next to your skin, while staying hard-wearing and smooth to the touch on the outside.
Everything that makes these shorts amazing for the oceans makes them phenomenal back on land too.
WATER REPELLENT AND FAST DRYING
The shorts are treated with a durable water repellent coating that’s completely free from toxic fluorocarbons. Ocean spray will simply roll off them. And the same technology means the shorts dry rapidly out of the water, especially in direct sunlight. When you want to hang them up to dry you’ll find a reinforced drying loop just above the waistband.
The ultrasoft lining is breathable, stretchy and treated with an antibacterial finish.
The shorts’ invisible tech blocks invisible UV rays
Just like sunblock, fabric can be rated for its ability to reduce your exposure to the sun’s ultraviolet light. The Ultraviolet Protection Factor, or UPF, determines how much more protection your skin would have while wearing that piece of clothing. A UPF rating of 15 for example would give your skin 15x more protection than it would have if it was unprotected. These shorts are so densely knitted that the fabric scores a UPF of 50+ which is the highest possible rating, giving you the highest possible protection.
