Key technologies and functionality:
How did we create the most thermally efficient base layer on Earth?
Defined the 6 Goals:
To develop the world's most efficient natural moisture management technology.
To make a textile that absorbs and wicks moisture from the skin better than any other.
To create chemical-free odor-elimination and antibacterial fabric for hunting.
Design the coziest natural fiber clothing, crafted to be gentle, even on baby skin.
Maximize thermal insulation by using the finest yarns, which trap significantly more air than the thicker yarns used by our competitors.
To deliver a durable, long-lasting material you can trust.
What is SYNERTECH?
The synergistic technology developed by Hillman combines the best functionalities of two or more materials, achieving exponentially higher results than each material used separately. For example, we use bamboo fiber as the most efficient moisture absorber and merino wool as the most efficient wicking fiber. In comparison, using the materials separately does not allow us to reach such a high-efficiency level for moisture absorption and wicking.
What happens if the clothing is made only of Merino wool? Even when we use its best quality of 15.5 microns, the Merino wool structure is coarse and can only absorb 30% of its weight in moisture. Nevertheless, it stands out as the most effective moisture-wicking material on Earth.
Practically, if you wear Merino wool, it will effectively manage moderate sweating but may struggle to absorb excessive moisture from your skin, resulting in a wet and sticky feeling on top of your skin. For example, it won't absorb moisture when you are actively running or walking, and you will develop underarm sweat on your skin that takes a longer time to be absorbed. Furthermore, merino will cause itching on sensitive skin, irrespective of its quality, grade, and origin.
What happens if the clothing is made only of Bamboo viscose?
Bamboo viscose is a natural antibacterial hollow fiber that absorbs moisture three times its weight, three times faster than cotton, and ten times better than wool. It can wick moisture faster than cotton but is less efficient than wool.
For example, bamboo will absorb your sweat much quicker than any other material, but you will still develop sweat spots, which will be fewer than cotton but still exist. Also, bamboo fiber provides a silk-like, gentle feeling when in contact with the skin. It also allows heavy brushing for superior air trapping, better insolation, and a gentle fleecy feel.
The Final Result
Using natural chemical-free bamboo fiber as the best moisture absorber and the World’s finest possible grade 15.5-micron Australian merino wool as the best moisture-evaporation layer, we have exponentially higher moisture management and thermoregulation efficiency than any other material on Earth. Using the finest grades of materials, the gentle, cozy, itch-free, super functional fabric is now a reality. The plus is that both fibers are naturally antibacterial and anti-odor, making them the best synergy of natural fibers for hunting clothing ever.
COATS PROTECT
the power of anti-odor and anti-bacterial threads
Even if the material is antibacterial, the odor buildup in the underarm threads will always occur if the threads are not treated. This is why we used the one-of-a-kind CoatsProtect® threads to sew our hoodie and achieve the maximum level of odor elimination.
With anti-microbe treatment (Zone of inhibition clearly seen)
Without treatment (No zone of inhibition)
It doesn’t matter if you will wear these tights for hunting, hiking, or your daily life; we guarantee top performance, the highest level of comfort, and superb odor control.
Now get the best and most efficient premium hunting baselayer built with the finest materials on Earth that will bring a new level of perfection and definitely enhance your comfort and hunting efficiency.
