Australian firm Threadsmiths has managed to produce a t-shirt that’s completely water-repellent, meaning your torso will remain moisture-free under drizzly British skies.

The water-dodging tee is coated in ‘superhydrophobic’ nanotechnology that completely repels dirt and liquids, with Threadmiths promising that the fabric will remain ‘dry and without stains’.

“All manner of liquids bead up and completely roll off the surface of the fabric as they are unable to grip to the shirt’s surface,” says the firm.

Typically, water-resistant coating is applied through a spray-on aerosol, but Threadsmiths says this destroys fabrics and can contain carcinogenic chemicals.

The firm-down-under instead makes use of its own patented tech that’s free from dodgy chemicals and is completely safe for regular wear.

“The creation of this hydrophobic fabric technology has a myriad of potential future applications in the hospitality, medial, and industrial sectors,” explains Threadsmiths.
