In the world of sportswear, there is a problem that we all know well: managing odors during training.

Whether it’s an intense bike training ride, a track practice session on a motorbike, or an outdoor run in the park, odors can ruin not only your clothing, but also your self-confidence .

But what is the origin of these annoying odors that seem to persist even after numerous washes?

The answer lies in the bacteria that feed on the sweat on your body and clothing, metabolizing it to produce chemical compounds responsible for unpleasant odors.

The Odor Problem: An In-Depth Analysis

When you practice physical activity, your body sweats to regulate body temperature and disperse heat. This sweat is mainly composed of water and mineral salts, but also contains other substances, such as fatty acids and ammonia, which can interact with bacteria present on the skin and clothing.

The bacteria feed on these substances, metabolizing them and producing unpleasant odors as a result of their digestive process.

Over time, if not treated correctly, these odors can impregnate the fabrics of sportswear, generating a biofilm that is difficult to eliminate even with repeated washing cycles.

Staphylococcus hominis
Staphylococcus hominis - this is the name of the person "responsible" for the bad odor emanating from the armpits when you sweat. It is a bacterium that feeds on the molecules of secreted sweat to subsequently produce thiols, organic compounds with a characteristic unpleasant odor.
