I created oya after my 5th yeast infection

And I'm Done Being Polite About It

Mitch Gilbert, Founder & CEO

In My Junior Year As A Collegiate Athlete

I Got My 5th Yeast Infection In 6 Months

Every doctor said: "Stop wearing synthetic workout clothes." But as an athlete who lived in activewear, that wasn't realistic advice. So I asked a different question: Why doesn't activewear that's actually good for skin health exist?

80+ DOCTORS, 200+ ATHLETES, 100+ WARFIGHTERS & FIRFIGHTERS

I SPENT TWO YEARS ENGINEERING A SOLUTION FOR HEROES WHO SWEAT

Interviewed OB/GYNs, dermatologists, urologists
Tested 30+ fabric combinations
Developed a patented moisture management system
Tested product on on doctors, WNBA players, athletes, soldiers, firefighters, menopausal women, and moms
Got backing from 80+ medical professionals

THE RESULT

Oya - activewear that protects sweaty skin from the infections that regular activewear causes.
