'Cool Sensation Items Targeting Solo Hiking and Solo Camping Enthusiasts'
[Asia Economy Reporter Yujin Cho] The number of people visiting mountains has surged due to “social distancing in daily life,” and solo hiking and solo camping are also gaining popularity.
The summer season, when the weather gradually becomes hotter and more humid, requires items suited to its unique temperature and humidity conditions. Especially for healthy outdoor activities, it is important to prepare functional products that are lightweight, maintain coolness for a long time, and can help prevent various accidents such as heat-related illnesses and exhaustion.
For millennials and women in their 20s and 30s who are passionate about hiking, we recommend NEPA’s leggings look. The styling combines dark-colored leggings, a thin T-shirt, and a pop-colored windbreaker that can add a point to the day’s look. The Sera leggings use a stretchy double-sided fabric for comfort during activity. Although thin, the double-knit fabric prevents transparency, and the design wraps around the waist to conceal the belly area, which can be a concern. The 10-part length reaching the ankles is perfect for hiking, protecting the legs from scratches caused by branches and the like.
The matching Primosion jacket, true to its name “motion suit,” focuses on muscle and cell movement during motion to provide correct posture and proper fit, making it comfortable even during active hiking. Additionally, mesh fabric is applied to the front chest area to facilitate heat release during exercise, and the side parts support the body while allowing a slimmer fit. It is easy to choose according to style with trendy colors ranging from off-white to coral and pale violet.
When enjoying solo hiking or solo camping, a T-shirt with cooling functionality is essential for a comfortable and light hike. Treksta’s “Snowflake T-shirt” applies a 3D aluminum dot technique to the back and neck areas, where the most heat is generated, providing a twice as cool wearing sensation as if snowflakes have settled.
In particular, the cooling effect on the contact surface with the skin quickly releases heat and sweat generated inside the body, lowering body temperature and maximizing freshness and comfort. The Snowflake T-shirt series uses a material mixed with special ceramic particles, offering cooling technology that blocks ultraviolet and heat rays, allowing the wearer to feel the cooling effect throughout wear.
With a basic fit and clean design, it adds a stylish touch and is highly versatile not only for outdoor activities but also as a daily T-shirt in everyday life. The zip-up style allows easy temperature control by opening and closing the zipper, and it is also good for wearing lightly under outerwear.
Treksta’s “Ice Punch” pants maximize freshness and cooling sensation with cooling functionality, rapid moisture absorption through fine channels, and excellent drying performance, reducing the sticky feeling caused by clothes clinging to the skin and providing a refreshing sensation. They also have UV protection to protect the skin during outdoor activities. Additionally, the soft texture offers a comfortable fit, allowing for pleasant wear even in the high discomfort index of midsummer.
Outdoor brand Mountia’s “Ice Gear” T-shirts, available in two types, feature contact cooling materials combined with a visually cool effect. The moment you wear them, the temperature of the skin touching the fabric instantly drops, providing coolness and comfort, and the cooling function applied to the yarn itself maintains coolness even after hundreds of washes.
The representative product, the “Nesty Shirt,” combines contact cooling material with lightweight and highly elastic functional fabric, offering excellent mobility and comfort for summer outdoor activities. Both men’s and women’s versions feature ice graphic patterns reminiscent of ice particles and Mountia’s unique pattern graphic printing, adding a refreshing feel.
The men’s “Most Shirt” also uses contact cooling material and enhances comfort with breathable mesh fabric in the armpit area, where sweat is abundant. Additionally, the tone-on-tone color design with a subtle stripe pattern allows for a cool and neat look.
