We’re back! It “only” took 1 year, but we finally cracked how to engineer t-shirts that will make it easier than ever to look your best.

The outside repels liquids and semi-liquids, while the inside wicks away moisture. Sweat stains are not visible and you stay dry even in the most humid climates.

Engineered to make life easier - without compromising on style and comfort. 
 


We use a unique combination of 3 of the most innovative textile technologies - something which has never been done before in a 100% cotton product.
 


 

On the outside our t-shirts are hydrophobic. This means that they repel liquids and semi-liquids. Even serious spills like red wine or beetroot juice can easily be rinsed off with water.


 

We added natural silver particles to the yarn, which kills the odour-causing bacteria in your sweat.


 

The inside absorbs and wicks away moisture, automatically spreading your sweat across a larger surface and towards the exterior of the cotton, making it easy to evaporate through the fabric. Moisture wicking also makes the fabric breathable and fast-drying.

Visible sweat stains become a thing of the past - even in a grey t-shirt.


 

Our mill in Portugal only uses 100% soft long-staple 180 g/m2 cotton with a high tear resistance.

Our t-shirt is the perfect marriage between style and performance. Together with our designer we used data from 67.000 men to design the perfect fit. Our grading ensures the basic fit matches 85% of European male bodies


 

 

We specialize in premium basics made for an action-packed life. They work wonders when you bike to work or go on a long-haul flight. However bear in mind that we make fashion products, not sportswear.






Our dress socks are antibacterial and odour-free, thanks to the our odour control technology. The technology prevents the growth of odour-causing bacteria at the source. Low concentrations of silver salt, which has antimicrobial properties, are used to do this. The silver kills 99.9% of odour-causing bacteria, which means your feet (and socks) stay fresh all day and even longer.


 

 

Our story began one year ago on Kickstarter, when we launched the odour and stain repellent white dress shirt.

After a joined effort with Indiegogo InDemad our project got 1000% funded and immediately quit our jobs, so we could turn LABFRESH into a real business.

Without you, crowdfunding enthusiasts, we wouldn’t be here today.

Launching new products is scary. It requires a lot of resources to get new technologies out of the lab and into a real supply chain.

That is why we would like to see if the crowdfunding community is interested in our new invention before we go into full-scale production.

Our mission hasn’t changed. We want to fight fast fashion and over-consumption by creating products engineered to last a lifetime. True sustainability is when you can wear your clothing for years instead of buying new stuff all the time.

How to find your perfect size

1. Lay your favorite t-shirt on a flat surface
2. Start measuring A, B and E on the seam
A. Chest: 1cm below armpit
B. Waist: 1/2-way your waist height
E. Shoulder 2 Shoulder: At the end of shoulder (point were shoulder seam and arm seam meet)
3. Measure the distance to the exact same spot on the other side
4. C and D are measured as follows:
C. T-shirt length: Find High Shoulder Point (HSP) and measure distance down to bottom of the t-shirt
D. Sleeve length: Find point were arm seam starts and measure distance (outside of sleeve) to end of sleeve
5. Compare your findings to the size chart below and pick the right size!


*C and E should be the leading measurements when deciding what size to choose.
*A is always larger than E, although the size guide might suggest otherwise.
 

 

No harsh chemicals. Yes, we use chemicals. But we don’t dip our fabric in big tubs of chemicals. Instead of traditional coatings we press a paste directly into the fibers, so that the surface remains unaffected. OEKO-TEX certified and in accordance with the REACH, which is the strictest standard for use of chemicals in textiles in the world. It’s so safe so our scientists literally use their mouths during the development process.


 

We work with some of the best mills and factories in Portugal - one of the most respected manufacturing hubs in Europe. All treatments are sourced within the EU.


 

                 

       


 




Q: When do I have to decide my size & colour?

A: You will receive an email from us in which you have to select the right style, size and colour. The email will contain a clear and elaborate size chart to make sure you select the right size. We send out this email every two weeks.

Q: I have a request for a bulk order, who can I reach out to?
A: You can send us a personal message on the IGG platform or email us on hello@labfresh.eu and mention that you saw us on IGG and are interested in placing a bulk order. We can add a new, personalized perk according to your interests. 

Q: What sizes are the models wearing and what is their height?
A: Grey: Medium, 1,86m and 84kg | White: Large, 1,89m and 78kg | Black: Medium, 1,80m and 74kg

Q: If I order my LABFRESH t-shirts through Indiegogo, when will I get them?
A: You will receive the t-shirts August the latest. You will be updated during the whole process and we will be available to answer all your questions.

Q: Will the unique stain repellent and odour-free features of the LABFRESH t-shirt last forever? 
A: We guarantee that the t-shirt will hold its unique features up to 50 washes, when care instructions are followed.

But the main take out here is: wear more, wash less, buy less.

The less you wash the t-shirt the longer it will last. The silver particles that are woven into the yarn kill all bacteria, keeping the t-shirt clean and fresh and allowing you to wear it for more days than traditional t-shirt.

Q: If the t-shirt doesn't get wet how do I wash it?
A: You can wash the t-shirt in the same way as your other t-shirt. Because of the huge amounts of water and water pressure in the machine the t-shirt will still get wet. The t-shirt is not 100% hydrophobic and can get wet. If it would be 100% hydrophobic it will feel like a rain jacket and will lose the natural look and feel.

Q: How is this different from all the nano sprays and coatings?
A: A couple of things: 
- Nano sprays often have quite strong and harmful chemicals. 
- Our technology is pressed deeply into the fibers of the fabric. Because of this the technology also last for many washes.

Q: How is it possible that the t-shirt is breathable?
A: The t-shirt is just as breathable as any other t-shirt. The technology is pressed into the yarns and doesn't seal off the whole fabric, only the yarns. Air can still go through the fabric even if water can't.

Q: Are you ever gonna make t-shirts for women?
A: Never say never but it's not in the plan for now. As a young startup, you need to focus. 
The t-shirts can of course be worn by women. If you are ok with a loose/normal fit then we recommend taking one size smaller than your usual size.

           

Unlimited cancellation. You are able to cancel your order at any point of time and get a full refund.

90 days size guarantee. If your size is wrong we send you a new shirt in the right size free of charge (we do not provide free return labels).

Free and easy shipping across the EU, US & Canada. Shipping costs to other parts of the world is only €15.

This campaign has been promoted by Backercamp. Since 2012, Backercamp has helped over 5,000 creators make their projects a reality.

LABFRESH is fashion, not sportswear. You might be able to run a marathon in it without smelling, but that is not what our products are intended for.

With regards to stains we have been able to wash off any liquids and semi-liquids with water. However if you rub a substance into the fabric with force or if a very oily sauce comes in contact with the fabric, it will eventually make a slightly visible stain. You'll have to put it in the washer at 30 degrees to get the stain off.

Production delays and unforeseen obstacles are always a risk. This is however not our first rodeo and we know our factory and mill well. We are very happy with the 35 perfect prototypes we had so far, and we are confident they will be punctual.
