Zenkai Sports is a Portland, OR-based company that makes natural, sustainable performance apparel. Its core product line uses Filium, which applies anti-odor technology and enhanced thermoregulation to convert natural fabrics into performance apparel. Filium-activated materials require less washing and aim to boost athletic performance through improved thermoregulation. The company says its apparel is biodegradable and is shipped in compostable packaging. Zenkai was founded by Doug Lynch and Raj and Akhil Shah and is used by athletes across the NHL, NBA, NFL, MLB, NWSL and MMA. In December 2022 the company raised $1M and plans to use the proceeds to accelerate growth and product development.
