The natural texture of the linen gives the overshirt a lived-in character while maintaining the refined tailoring associated with Italian menswear.

Most hydration formulas are built for race day. Momentm's Ignition is designed for every day. Instead of loading up on sodium and sugar, the daily hydration mix combines a balanced blend of electrolytes with magnesium, potassium, coconut water powder, and functional ingredients including InnoSlim, Curcousin, Tulsi, and green tea extract to support hydration and metabolic wellness. With less than one gram of natural sugar, no caffeine, and no artificial sweeteners, Ignition is intended to become a daily ritual rather than a post-workout recovery drink. Grounded in Ayurvedic principles and modern clinical research, it offers a more measured approach to staying hydrated, while a limited-time summer promotion adds a complimentary orange water bottle with the purchase of two boxes.
