GLYCOREACT COLLECTION
Design Overview
What if next to skin apparel could provide direct muscle energy in response to an athlete’s intensity, thus enhancing sport performance, and reducing recovery time?
Glycoreact harnesses the unique properties of Australian Merino wool to provide direct muscle energy in response to an athlete’s activity intensity. Ideal for the intense needs of the Luna Rossa Prada Pirelli sailing team, Glycoreact combines nano-infused glucose microcapsules and optical nano sensors for transdermal glucose transfer, releasing glucose into an athlete’s circulatory system to provide fuel and swift recovery when athletes need it most.
