災害級の暑さに…ワークマンが新機能ウェアを発表　45度の環境下を想定(2026年4月16日)

With another heatwave predicted this year, functional clothing designed to withstand extreme heat has been announced. Workman, a workwear manufacturer, has unveiled functional clothing designed for environments with temperatures of 45°C. By combining materials that block external heat with materials that dry sweat quickly, they expect to lower the perceived temperature by about 10°C. They also plan to focus on general consumer products, such as UV-cut hoodies that cover the entire face with mesh material, in order to increase sales beyond workwear. In light of the recent heatwaves, there has been a surge in new products using materials with cooling properties and UV protection. [TV Asahi NEWS] https://news.tv-asahi.co.jp
