The collection of “TAGX OCEAN” features three apparel products: The Ultimate Comfortable WHALESILK Sun-Protective Jacket, The Comfortable WHALESILK Body-Shaping Sports Base Layer Pro Version, and The Whalewick™ Yarn Sweat-Absorbing Sports T-Shirt.

The Ultimate Comfortable WHALESILK Sun-Protective Jacket utilizes a new generation of sun-proof technology, Uvvsecure™, based on the original yarn made of dispersive polymer chain, which is a pioneering technology and application of its kind in the clothing industry. The yarn itself possesses sun-protection properties, achieving an unprecedented UPF rating of 100+. Its sun-protection performance remains robust even after multiple washes.

The Comfortable WHALESILK Body-Shaping Sports Base Layer Pro Version employs an instant cooling technology named Incolen®. The WHALESILK yarn of 20 denier microfiber, rich in marine amino acids, offers excellent moisture absorption and perspiration wicking, quickly lowering body temperature for an immediate cooling effect in summer. It also uses an antibacterial technology named SgermOff® on the original yarn based on the antibacterial polymer chain, endowing the yarn with inherent antibacterial properties that withstand washing. NonSevv®, an exclusively patented technology using the full-fit 3D curved surfaces, provides a seamless design, ensuring a comfortable experience without much feeling of wearing.

The Whalewick™ Yarn Sweat-Absorbing Sports T-Shirt adapts a one-way moisture-wicking technology. Utilizing a dual-layer yarn structure, it rapidly transfers sweat from the skin to the outer layer of the T-shirt, maintaining a dry feeling even during intense sweating with its powerful one-way moisture-wicking capability.

In terms of environmental sustainability, TAGX sources natural materials from the ocean, extracting deep-sea proteins from the scales of marine creatures to develop the fabric called WHALESILK. This fabric is naturally eco-friendly and biodegradable, providing long-lasting antibacterial properties. Through the ground-breaking technology, TAGX aims to reduce the environmental impact of textiles, promoting a green and sustainable concept to protect our beautiful planet earth.
