Lab-Tested. Mission-Ready.

Lab Testing
Independent testing (MTS Lab, 2022) verified 2x sweat wicking, 2x absorbency, 3x breathability and 99.9% bacteria blocking on our mesh and self fabrics. The silver-treated mesh and flame resistant fabrics were tested to ISO 10993-5 (cytotoxicity), ISO 10993-10 (skin sensitization) and ISO 10993-23 (irritation), with no adverse response. Tested to AATCC 79, 197 and 199 and ASTM D737 (absorbency, wicking, drying, airflow) and ATCC 6538 and 4352 (bacteria).

Warfighters
43% of Army women report a UTI or vaginal infection during field exercises or extended training, and about two-thirds of them say it interfered with their job (RAND, DoD Womenโ€™s Reproductive Health Survey). The US Air Force lists UTIs and recurring skin irritation among key challenges for women aircrew (AFWERX, 2020).

Why It Matters

Military and active women are more prone to infections due to intense sweat, friction, and long hours in restrictive gear. Oya is the first performance brand built to solve that.

We're not guessing.
We're not greenwashing.
We're not trendy.

We are activewear engineered for heat, sweat and odor control. Designed with OB/GYN input, lab-tested and HSA/FSA eligible.
