OEL Launches Utility Base Layers

Outlast Technologies, a Space Foundation Space Certification Program Corporate Patrons Partner, has announced a new licensee. OEL Worldwide Industries is launching Structurewear – an all-purpose line of base layers featuring Outlast® heat management technology.

OEL Structurewear is designed to be worn under any work uniform, sports clothing, outdoor wear or business attire. The base layers offer triple the benefits with Outlast® technology: heat, odor and moisture management.

How Outlast® Technology Works
Designated as a Certified Space Technology by the Space Foundation and originally developed for NASA, Outlast® technology proactively manages heat to reduce discomfort from fluctuations in skin temperature.

Outlast® responds to changes in skin temperature by absorbing excess heat and storing it until there is a change in temperature, then releases it as needed. This continuous cycle allows the wearer to stay at a balanced temperature for everyday comfort, and more comfort means better performance.
