The Övik Lite Shirt with short sleeves is suitable for a variety of (outdoor) activities. The mix of organic cotton and lyocell makes the shirt light and airy to wear. This means that the Övik Lite is also suitable for hiking in warm, humid climates.
Lyocell is an artificial fiber on a natural basis. The fiber comes from wood chips from eucalyptus, oak or beech trees. Lyocell is thin, strong and breathable. It feels soft, dries quickly and absorbs moisture well. The material is biodegradable. The production of lyocell takes place through a closed system. This means that the water and chemicals required for the production process are almost completely reused. Furthermore, no harmful substances are released during production. This ensures less environmental impact.
Cotton is a natural material that comes from the cotton plant. The cotton fibers are spun into a yarn that is often used in clothing because of its durability, comfort and strength. In addition, cotton has good breathability and can easily absorb moisture. Cotton can discolour due to light and the stretchability of the fabric is limited. Unfortunately, cotton production is a burden on the environment, as cotton fields are often sprayed with toxic chemicals such as insecticides and pesticides. That is why organic cotton is grown without the use of chemicals. This helps to keep the soil fertile and to protect biodiversity.
