Product details
Antiwave Organic Faraday T-Shirt for Men
This short-sleeved, round-neck T-shirt is made from New Antiwave, a right-left jacquard knit that combines combed organic cotton with silver-coated polyamide. It is soft, antistatic, elastic and has very good tear resistance. It is opaque, in a light grey with a silver shimmer, and can be worn as an outer layer or as underwear. The organic cotton is from controlled organic cultivation (kbA). Browse our full range of EMF clothing.
Shielding Performance
New Antiwave provides up to 26 dB of shielding from 470 MHz to 960 MHz, which covers TV broadcasting, 4G and the low 5G bands, and GSM and LTE. At higher frequencies shielding falls: 23 dB at 1800 to 1900 MHz, 21 dB at 2110 to 2170 MHz, 20 dB at 2.4 GHz WiFi, 17 dB at 3.4 to 3.7 GHz (5G mid-band) and 13 dB at 5 GHz WiFi. Decibels are a logarithmic scale: every 10 dB is a tenfold reduction in signal power, so 20 dB means 99% of the signal power at that frequency is blocked. These are the maximum values from the manufacturer's test report by the EMF Test Lab Bavaria, tested according to IEEE Std 299-2006. Shielding varies with the direction of the signal and how far the fabric is stretched, and it is much lower at 20 GHz and above, so millimeter wave 5G is not covered. See the Specifications tab for the full table.
Fabric
- Composition: 89% organic cotton, 9% polyamide and 2% silver.
- Silver: the polyamide fiber is coated all around with pure silver, not nano silver.
- Weight and thickness: about 4.3 oz per square yard (145 g/m²) and about 0.02 inch (0.5 mm) thick.
- Made in Germany.
Care and Washing
The fabric is made to retain its shielding through about 40 washes. Follow these care instructions:
- Wash gently, on a delicate or wool cycle at 30 or 40°C (86 or 104°F).
- Iron gently, at a low temperature (iron level 1).
- No bleach, and no detergents that contain bleach.
- Do not tumble dry.
- No dry cleaning.
Sizing
These shirts are made in Germany in European sizes, which run smaller than US sizes. Each size is named both ways: for example, US Small (EU Medium). Choose the size you normally wear in US sizes, and check it against the measurements in the size chart in the Specifications tab. The label inside the shirt shows the EU size, so a US Small has a label that says Medium.
- Size
