Our silver-based bags kill the bacteria that causes odors in fabric and keep the stench contained. This gives you a handy place to store clothes on the go, and it keeps them separate from the clean clothes you haven’t worn yet.

Best yet, the bag itself is odor-proof. When you remove your dirty clothes to wash them the bag will still smell fresh — you only need to wash it if it’s visibly dirty.

The travel bags also serve as a convenient way to carry extra shoes or clothes during a hike or other adventure for the day while you leave the rest of your luggage in your hotel. You can easily zipper the bag closed and put it in a backpack or behind your seats in the car, so you won’t have to lug your heavy suitcase around with you.

Most of the odor you smell when you sweat is caused by bacteria on your body. This is why bathing and disinfecting makes you smell fresh, but when you’re in the wilderness keeping clean is not always an option. For times like these it would be handy if there were clothes you could wear that would resist odor, right?

Silver Edge Gear’s patent-pending technology permanently coats fabric in silver, a metal which has been used for its antimicrobial properties for a long time. Silver kills bacteria on contact, which leaves clothes and other fabrics coated in it nearly impervious to the stink of sweat while you hike, chop wood, or anything else your camping adventure holds.

The fabric is also designed to whisk away moisture and sweat, which prevents chafing and keeps you drier so you can trek on.

You won’t have to worry about stinking up your tent with dirty clothes, either, as our silver-lined bags are perfect for storing the day’s clothes and containing any odors. This is handy, again, for when you’ll be out for several days unable to do laundry.

Silver Edge Gear sports apparel is geared toward athletes and active people, helping them stay cool and keep focused under pressure. It’s always nice to see it help those in professional sports, and we’re proud to see professional basketball player Whit Holcomb-Faye using our silver-lined arm sleeve.

See a video of Holcomb-Faye making free throws showing it off and looking sharp.

Holcomb-Faye currently plays in Holland (Aris Leeuwarden, Holland Eridvisie) as a point guard, having finished 10th in the nation at Radford Univeristy prior to this role. He is, as HoopAmbassadors.com says, a “student of the game and master in the court.”

Sweat smells because of the bacteria floating within it, which is why staying clean prevents odor. This is hard to do much about during a game, of course, and a normal gym bag is destined to absorb all the bacteria of the sweaty clothes thrown in it afterward.

Silver Edge Gear has created the solution to this problem with fabrics that don’t smell even when soaking wet. How does that work? The answer lies in a patent-pending technology.

This technology involves infusing the fibers of cloth with pure silver — a metal that has been used for a long time as an antimicrobial agent. Even the ancient Egyptians used silver containers to keep water fresh. Modern science has confirmed that silver kills bacteria.

Heard of other silver-lined bags and shirts before? Not like this. Other silver apparel only has a surface coating, which will eventually rub off with use or repeated washing. Silver Edge Gear’s process fully imbues silver into the fabric and will never rub or wash off, which means a long lasting solution for you.

Relief For College Athletes and Athletic Centers

You can throw your sweaty clothes and towel into your Silver Edge bag and rest assured it won’t stink when you open it, even if you let it sit that way for a few hours after getting home. The bag itself is machine washable if it gets soiled or dirty, and independent tests have confirmed that after repeated washing no bacteria-killing effectiveness is lost.

This is a great option for college athletic centers where sports are prevalent, sometimes at all hours of the day. Imagine if every locker had a bacteria-killing bag in it; although it wouldn’t eliminate that locker room smell altogether it would definitely make it less fragrant.

A Patrick Hruby pointed out in his ESPN article “A Dangerous Game”, tennis is a very sweaty game. So much so, Hruby says, that some players even bring a bunch of shirts and wristbands with them to change throughout the game.

It’s a part of the game tennis players just accept as inevitable. But what if there were an alternative to that plain old shirt that gets soaked through, stinks, and maybe even chafes when the heat is on?

Sweat itself does not have much of a smell. The odor caused by sweat is mostly from bacteria, and that can be tough to deal with on the fly. Independent studies have shown that silver kills bacteria on contact, however, and patent-pending technology has allowed for coating the fibers of cloth with small amounts of silver. The result is a something that looks and feels pretty much like a regular shirt (or other apparel) but kills the bacteria of sweat absorbed into it.

That’s right — clothes and athletic bags that don’t smell even when they’re soaking wet.

But it gets even better for athletes like tennis players. This same technology that causes the gear not to smell also helps whisk away sweat, which can help prevent distracting moments while playing or even as many garment changes.

Former pro tennis player Alex O’Brien has said “For sure, sweating has cost me matches” (ESPN).

Silver Edge Gear has been featured in Forsyth Magazine, Triad Living, and even The Irish Times for their patent-pending silver gear technology. It’s a game changer set to redefine how we think of that smelly gym bag.

The odor you smell from gear after the game is mostly caused by bacteria in the sweat. Silver kills this odor causing bacteria on contact, and has been used medically for its antimicrobial properties for a long time.

The Odor Killing Process

Silver Edge Gear has a process of adhering real silver right into the nylon fabric of shirts, gym bags, shin guard pads, and arm bands to both whisk away sweat and prevent it from smelling. This also means a reduced chance of contact rashes in the shin guards and other padding.

Unlike other silver-lined products that only coat the fabric topically, the silver in this gear will never wash or rub off. You can machine wash it (cold) and use it for years. Our process also coats the fabric’s fibers completely instead of only coating the surface, which means greater bacteria-killing potential.

This is big news for soccer moms, as it provides a long lasting solution to a common problem for sporty kids. Silver Edge Gear products are completely safe, and have been independently tested to show no reduction in bacteria stopping power after repeated washing and use.

Do your kids forget to empty their bags when they get home and leave the clothes in there for awhile? While it’s still good not to leave them too long to avoid mildew, you can rest assured that after the bag has sat for several hours it’s not going to reek as you open it up.
