Permanent UV-Protection Treatment

For the avid outdoors woman, protection from the sun's damaging rays remains a top priority. Keeping you in mind, the HVOC has incorporated permanent UV protection treatments into some of our warm weather garments.

The treated fabric provides excellent UV blocking with superior fastness even after repeated laundering. So embrace the elements; knowing that when it comes to the sun the HVOC has got you covered.

Anti-Microbial

Anti-Microbial treatments are applied primarily for odor control in the field. So you can be sure that once you start to sweat, your garment will be working double time to inhibit the growth of bacteria and microbes. Our anti-microbial treatments are both durable and reusable. So wash and wear with confidence; knowing that your garment is working to help you embrace the elements.

Mosquito Protection

EcoNano Mosquito Repellent finishing is a novel system based on green nano-chemistry that is kind to human skin. It can effectively repel insects; such as mosquitoes, mites, and ticks. So on your next excursion you can embrace the elements with out having to battle the insects.

EcoNano - DWR

When the outdoors are your passion, you will inevitably find yourself crossing a grass field coated with early morning dew. Before you know it, your pants are sopping wet. That's why we have coated most of our pants with a heavy DWR. So hike, stalk, or watch... and don't worry about the puddles along the way.

Aroma

While we have not yet incorporated an aroma technology into our line, we are researching the possibility of applying some of natures most common scents into your clothing, instead of trying to eliminate your body's natural smells, you can simply blend in with scents such as acorns or pine needles. How do you feel about the application of aroma flavor? Please e-mail us with your thoughts and comments.
