Hello Product Hunters, I am Alexander and one of the co-founders of Organic Basics. We are super excited and honored to be featured on Product Hunt today. We have been researching and developing for more than a year now on how to bring you a line of basic apparel that actually matters to the modern man. Based on material previously used in space suits have we created what we believe is the world's most comfortable, versatile and advanced underwear named Silvertech. By working with natural elements such as pure silver and organic cotton, we've created a fabric that enhances the capabilities of your skin. We are bringing you a product that: - Eliminates 99,9% of all bacteria. - Naturally regulates temperature to reduce sweat - Creates a better blood circulation. - Keeps you fresh and odorless all day - all week. We are currently live on Kickstarter - and have been featured on everything from Wired to Ars Technica. Please check it out and we are open to all of your feedback :) And in regards to AMA, we'll be available all day to answer your questions that might occur e.g.: Q: "Can I wear these for a week non-stop?" A: "Absolutely. It will even keep you free from typically bad smell, sweat and kill bacteria that might have occurred ! ;)" Thanks for being amazing, ProductHunt.
Hi Alexander That your product sounds awesome 👍 And congrats on the launch and the initial press coverage, that's impressive 😻
Maker
Thanks a bunch! Much appreciated. The press coverage so far has been truly amazing! We are bit overwhelmed as well! :)
thanks! But I prefer changing underwear at least once a day 😝 cool product though!
Denmark represent! Good to see a danish (even Aarhusianian) product on here. Best of luck!
Maker
Thanks a bunch for your feedback! :) Happy with the local support!!
this sounds great! If the product delivers on its promises, this could be a BIG THING for people in physical occupations and for anyone exercising. You actually convinced me to make my first ever Kickstarter pledge. 🙌
Maker
Thanks a million for your support. This really means everything to us! You are spot on - we created this product as we see there is great potential when looking at the active, modern man. Pure silver is a metal that can naturally be extracted from mother earth. There are no artificial chemicals in our 99.99% pure silver, and it's of course nontoxic. Of all metals known to mankind, silver is known for being the most efficient reflector as well as the best electrical-,and thermal conductor. But most importantly silver is known for its oligodynamic effect; a biocidal effect that controls microbial growth and kills bacteria with silver ions. This makes the fabric extremely effective when looking into people who are exercising or having physical occupations.
Wow - This is really cool :-) I need to back the project on Kickstarter! It's impressive that you have already reached your goal. I wish you the best of luck.

Thanks a bunch for your support! So far it's been one hell-of-a-fun-ride - and we are really amazed by all the 777 backers from more than 24 countries supporting our journey! Thanks again!
That's a change in something you never expected to change!
Maker
Thanks a bunch, Leon. Our dream is to develop and create products that are always challenging the industry and at the same time always minimizing the impact our production and products have on the environment!
I really hope you do some women's apparel at some point.
Maker
Thanks a bunch for your kind words! We have already done quite some research on the female line and are estimating to announce a smaller female selection start Q4 - so hang in there! And I will keep you posted! :)
Amazing! :D I'm really looking forward to test the products myself!! And it doesn't hurt to feel a bit like an astronaut while doing it ;)
Maker
Exactly! Who doesn't want to feel like an astronaut? :)
mmmmm space underwear.... FANCY!
Love the product and I am looking forward to my T-Shirt in August!
Maker
Thanks a bunch for your support! We are excited to ship some t-shirts your way!
This is what I call disruption! 😸
Maker
Yay!!! Disruption in an industry in heavy need! ;)
So colloidal silver has long been known as a way to kill the enzymes in bacteria universally. It's often used as a coating on the bottom of pots for water purification. Colloidal water filters have always been awesome. Using it in clothing isn't necessarily a new thing and I'm willing to bet the reason that it hasn't been used in underwears before is because of the price of Silver and how it departs from the textile over time. (I studied polymer-textile-fiber engineering at Georgia Tech--- have been curious about colloidal silver clothing products for quite a while.) What's the duration of usage for one of these silver laced underwear given that the silver will rub off eventually? I'd also like to point out that despite the cotton being "organic" that the compounds used to dye cotton are extremely damaging to the surrounding environment and account for upwards of 20% of all industrial water pollution. what can you say about your dye-ing process?
