Whether you're treading the boards, hitting the bricks, or running like the wind, you'll probably sweat to some degree. And while sweating is good, sensitive skin can react badly to malingering moisture on un-friendly fabrics. It is what can cause body odour, or even worse a bad rash. But Hemp fibres are naturally antibacterial and water resistant, helping to prevent forms of bacteria, mould or fungus that commonly occur in cotton alternatives. It's why Hemp was used for both seafaring and military combat, and its why it's the best.
Scientific proof came in 2015 at a bio-research centre in an undisclosed location, three sidelined scientists (Khan, Warner and Wang) began conducting experiments onIndustrial Hemp, and proved the fibre“significantly inhibits microbial growth and displays antibacterial activity against a wide range of bacteria.”  Even corporate conglomeratePanda Bioteck (Lubbock, Texas) discovered ‘Hemp to naturally display significant antibacterial and anti-fungal antibodies.’ This should have been the proof that put Hemp back in the public eye. But as is often the way with this long persecuted plant, the positive story never got picked up. 
Our own field research was conducted in a field where we ran around a Rood 25 times (approximately 5 miles). Then climbed up a tree. Then rolled around in the grass. Then dug some holes to plant some trees. This was about two hours of intense Hemp T-Shirt and Hemp Sock use. We then went to the pub (without changing) and nobody said anything about any bad smells, in fact people only wanted to know where we got our T-Shirt. 
Hemp is a wonder-crop with super-strength. To thrive it needs no pesticides, and fixes the ground in which it grows. These benefits carry over into the magical material it makes. Protecting your body like it would its own environment. It means Rood clothes that help with sweat-safety, smell-suppression, and skin-care. Not quite a germ-proof vest, but the closest thing you’ll get whilst still looking good. So why not Choose Rood and test for yourself?
