Spring’s promise of better weather inspires Italian collection
Italian cycling brand Xtech has created a collection made with Fulgar’s Q-Skin, a polyamide 6.6 fibre that incorporates silver ions directly into the yarn during the spinning process.
Bacteria have a negative charge, while the silver ions have a positive charge - this allows the silver ions to reduce excess bacterial flora, limiting odour and promoting freshness.
The collection includes garments for both cycling and outdoor sports: technical socks, tops, jackets and bib shorts, all made in Italy.
Samuele Ragnoli, owner of Xtech, said: “The arrival of spring brings enthusiasm for the first outdoor outings, whether by bike or on foot, and our collection was designed with this time of year in mind. We chose Fulgar’s Q-Skin because we know how important it is for outdoor sports enthusiasts to rely on garments that guarantee maximum performance and comfort, especially when resuming regular training after winter.”
