Odlo has launched its new Linencool material, which is a combination of organic linen and polyester that offers the wearer a reduction of its body temperature by 0.5 degrees as compared to a typical polyester material. Linencool will be introduced to the brand's running, cycling and women's training product categories. Odlo will also launch a new line of training apparel that will be for women only. The first collection will be launched in spring/summer 2019.
