The exhibit will present DELTAPEAK mixed with natural fibers, one of the fabric's many variants.
-Octahas a unique, highly modified cross-section with eight projections aligned in a radial pattern around a hollow fiber. Notable advantages include rapid wicking and drying, and useful bulkiness.

-Recycled nylon fiber produced by Taiwanese nylon manufacturer Chain Yarn Corporation turned into highly functional materials using Teijin Frontier's original yarn processing, -weaving and -dyeing technologies.
-SOLOTEXpolytrimethylene terephthalate fiber, a highly soft, stretchable, shape-retaining and durable material, which is partially bio-derived, so it helps to conserve fossil resources.
