So, I ordered my yearly supply of Dayton Flyer apparel from the University of Dayton Bookstore website the other day. In my order was a "dry release" tshirt, which is a nice way of saying microfiber, which is a nice way of saying polyester, only we pay way more for dry release than we would if the tag actually said polyester.... but I digress. Aside from the fact that I tend to like the "dry release" or "dry fit" shirts since I seem to perspire a bit... I noticed that the shirt also had "FreshGuard".

What is this strange animal. FreshGuard? Hadn't heard of that before but it sounded interesting. The tag described it as something that "neutralizes odor safely" and "keeps clothes fresh". Holy crap! There is actually technology in my shirt that keeps it smelling good? Why the heck doesn't eveything I own have this. I now want it. Where has it been all my life!

So on top of Dry Release technology that "removes perspiration fast", "dries 4x faster than cotton", is "soft feeling", "won't shrink or lose shape" and "resists pilling" (I HATE pills)... I now can have that fresh feeling all day long!

It's a wonderful age of nanotechnology we live in. The company that makes this is Optimer. I may just have to see if they are publicly traded. FreshGuard for product of the year!
