Light, soft and warm base layer crew in a relaxed cut. Perfect for everything from ski touring to bicycle commuting or for extra comfort in your everyday life.
The perfect base layer for the everyday activist. The light, soft, warm fabric in a relaxed cut will become your favorite for everything from ski touring to bicycle commuting or just to add a little extra heat to your everyday life.
The garments in the Activist series are designed for heavy use. They are versatile in terms of functionality and extremely comfortable. The cut is slightly relaxed which makes it a great everyday companion. In the Activist Crew, you can never go wrong, regardless of activity or situation.
Activist Crew is made in a blend of mulesing free merino wool 20µm, and Tencel®. The merino wool will keep you warm and is naturally odor resistant. Tencel® is a natural fiber made from cellulose. It gives the fabric a nice texture and adds moisture wicking properties. This combination of natural fibers make the Activist Crew completely circular. It’s made from renewable sources and is both recyclable and biodegradable. When the base layer is completely worn out you can return it to us for recycling or simply shred it up and put it in the compost if you have one of those. This is the reason why we never mix natural fibers with synthetics.
Activist Crew is a great choice if you are looking for an all-round base layer that works from the ski slopes to the running trails and everywhere in between.
Optimal organic solution for the future. A combination of merino wool and lyocell from Tencel® provides a softer touch than plain merino and an effective moisture management. Tencel® also increase the durability of the farbic while the merino wool transports moisture away from the skin and prevents odor in a natural way.
Wool is a fantastic material with natural bacterial and dirt resistance. Therefore, wool does not need to be washed after every use. Frequent washing has a negative effect on the wool's properties and unnecessarily wears down the garment. Instead, air your wool garments to reduce your water usage, save energy and make your garments last longer.
This product is fully circular, meaning that it's made either from recycled and recyclable or renewable and biodegradable fibers. Most products in today's society are made in a linear lifecycle, where the earth's resources are extracted, used and then discarded. This is not working in the long run and comes at a great environmental impact. Instead, Houdini wants to close the loop and reuse the material they already have. But they need your help. When your Houdini garments are completely worn out, please return them to Weekendbee to be recycled.
The fabric in this product is fully biodegradable. Thanks to the fact that Houdini never mixes our natural fibers with synthetics and doesn't use harmful chemicals, you can put the fabric in compost and nature will transform the fabric into fertile soil. Trimmings like care labels, zippers, seams etc have to be removed and can often be recycled separately. If you don't have your own compost, you can return the worn-out garment to Weekendbee.
The fibers in this garment come from 100% renewable sources like wool or cellulose. Houdini only uses natural fibers that are produced in environmentally and ethically responsible sources. Houdini uses both natural and synthetic fibers, they both have their merits, but Houdini never mixes them to ensure a circular product. This means that the fabrics from all Houdini products in natural fibers are fully biodegradable.
