Gym Clothes That Don't Stink, Thanks to Shrimp Shells

But some of the best performance gear designed for breathability is made from synthetic materials that hold onto acrid smells even after a wash. Strongbody, a startup in Vancouver, says its new line of active wear solves the exercise-stench equation—courtesy of a substance derived from shrimp and crab shells. The company is trying to expand its business by selling two new items on Kickstarter.
