Insect Repellent Clothing

NosiLife is Craghoppers' insect repellent clothing technology. The repellent is plant-based, made from Eucalyptus citriodora oil, and it's built into the fabric rather than sprayed on, so it lasts the lifetime of the garment. NosiLife fabric also eliminates odour, which helps on long, hot days.

What's in the range.

• Shirts and tops: the Adventure and Pro shirts, SolarShield+ tees and half zips, and the Abel tee.
• Pants: NosiLife Pro, Pro Convertible, Cargo and Convertible Cargo, plus the Cargo Short.
• Travel pieces: the NosiLife Pro Dress IV and the Nadim hooded jacket.
• Accessories: the Outback Hat II, Desert Hat III, Multi Active Cap II and three styles of travel socks.
• Kids: convertible pants, Pinzon pants and the Adventure shirt.

Most of the range is also made from UPF 50+ fabric, so one layer helps with sun and biting insects. See sun protection clothing.

Insect repellent clothing is one layer of protection. Where insects carry disease, follow local health advice and use a skin repellent on exposed skin as well.

Which one? For travel in the tropics or on safari, long sleeves and full-length pants cover the most skin. Shop men's NosiLife or women's NosiLife.
