SWEAT SMART: The Right Way to Wash Activewear

SWEAT SMART: The Right Way to Wash Activewear

When’s the last time you wore a linen pantsuit to hot yoga? Or rocked jeans at jiu-jitsu?

 

Hopefully never. Because, of course, high-performance workouts demand high-performance fabrics—the kind that move with you, keep you cool and wick away sweat. Those leggings and tech tees aren’t your average outfits. They deserve some serious respect on laundry days. 

 

Why Activewear Clings To Stink

 

Performance fabrics (think spandex, polyester, moisture-wicking blends) are made to repel water and wick away sweat. The very things that make them great in the gym cause them to put up a fight in the washing machine. Sweat, oil and bacteria burrow themselves into microscopic pores, getting trapped in the fibers. Even after washing, odors reactivate as soon as you heat up—because traditional detergents can’t break down trapped bacteria.

 

 

Nonaste’s eco-friendly formula attacks odors at the source. They dig out sweat, bacteria and odor right at the source so next time you exercise, you don’t smell the weeks of workouts before it. Even though it takes no prisoners when it comes to odors, it preserves everything you love about your favorite fits. The stretch, breathability and moisture-wicking power stay as strong as the day you popped the tags.
