NosiLife
If you ask anyone who has spent any time in the tropics what is the most dangerous and annoying animal they have encountered on their travels the answer will not be sharks, lions or even snakes but mosquitoes. These seemingly innocuous flying insects are responsible for more illness and deaths than almost all the other animals on the planet combined. It is true to say that there are numerous lotions and repellents available but they vary significantly in their effectiveness. The most effective way to avoid diseases such as malaria and dengue fever is simply not to get bitten. Mosquito nets provide an effective barrier against mosquitoes during the night but this does not help whilst trekking through tropical regions during the day, particularly at dusk or after rain. To minimise the risk carried by these insects Trekwear have introduced a new line of Nosilife Jackets. These jackets and indeed all the range of clothing from this manufacturer have been proven to reduce the incidence of mosquito bites by upto 90%. For further information on this line please visit the relevant page of our website and find out how you can minimise the risk posed by these insects whilst on your travels.
Nosilife Trousers
Mosquitoes are attracted to areas of the body that produce sweat and although they cannot penetrate the areas covered by socks and boots the ankle is the next best thing so some sort of protection for the whole leg is essential. Nosilife trousers are the perfect deterrent for these irritating and potentially deadly insects. These ultra light all purpose trousers protect the wearer from harmful UV rays, dry quickly and also stop the mossies from feasting on your blood supply. They weigh in at a check in friendly 330 grams and should be first on your packing list if you are jetting off for some tropical adventure. If you require any further information on the dangers of mosquitoes and also other potentially dangerous insects there is whole host of information online but the main message is clear, don’t get bitten! As the new technology increases and new additions are made to this kind of protective clothing you can be sure that Trekwear will research and stock the items as and when they become available. Please be sure to add our site to your favourites and keep returning regularly for the latest lines of outdoor and adventure clothing.
Nosilife Jackets
Although the clothing supplied by Trekwear is selected on their own individual qualities we believe our line of mosquito repellent clothing can prove to be the most valuable to our customers. Malaria and Dengue fever are debilitating diseases that can still linger in the body long after the initial bout of the disease has gone. To prevent this kind of scenario it is wise to keep all skin covered when trekking in malarial regions and wearing Nosilife clothing will give you that extra element of protection that standard clothing cannot. The most popular line from this range is currently our Camo jacket. This jacket’s attributes include but are certainly not limited to: SolarDry and water repellent finish, seven pockets and perhaps most importantly for the intrepid explorer, insect repellent treatment. Whatever your outdoor clothing requirements are you can be sure of finding something suitable on our site. We pride ourselves on providing the most comprehensive range of outdoor clothing available anywhere but if you should see something that you think we should be stocking and currently do not please tell us. Your feedback and suggestions enable us to appeal to a wider range of customers and provide them with exactly what they need.
Nosilife Clothing
The range of protective clothing we provide is by no means just suitable for the individual adventure traveller. It can be utilised by people working in the tropical regions where additional protection is required. Biologists, Field Scientists and other people involved in research can also benefit from the protection that this line of clothing provides. Even if an area or region is declared non malarial there are many other diseases associated with mosquito bites that are definitely worth avoiding. These include Dengue fever, yellow fever, epidemic polyarthritis, Rift Valley fever, Ross River fever, St Louis encephalitis and the West Nile virus. Some of these diseases can prove to more dangerous than others; it may be prudent to check with the local health authority of the region you are planning to visit. The risk of contracting these diseases can be diminished greatly if the correct clothing is worn in conjunction with some approved insect repellent. To reiterate, the best form of defence against these diseases is not to get bitten in the first place and here at Trekwear we completely concur with that advice and stock the first line of defence, Nosquito trousers and other suitable clothing.
Unwanted Souvenirs
Although we are a clothing retailer rather than a source of travel information we would always encourage our customers to be cautious whilst travelling. Everyone likes to bring home some sort of souvenir after a holiday or period of adventure travelling but presumably a potentially deadly disease is not one of them. By taking simple precautions like wearing Nosilife trousers, using a mosquito net and applying repellent, the risks of disease can be cut substantially. Preparation is a key element of a safe and relaxing holiday and it is recommended that travellers prepare an extensive checklist of the most essential items they need to take. Of course avoiding disease and injury should be the number one consideration of any traveller and by perusing our range of protective Nosquito clothing you can consider which line would be most beneficial. From good quality walking boots to waterproof jackets we stock all the clothing you could possibly need to get the most out of your foray into the wilds. If you have any questions whatsoever about any of the items detailed on our website please don’t hesitate to drop us a line, you will find our customer care as dedicated as the clothing we supply.
