Chief Executive Officer, Alex Umbra stated, "The response to Hygieia has surprised all of us at the company and on project. We have increased our original order size by 25% in an effort to accommodate consumer interest and will be watching the pre-order launch closely to determine the next shipment size and timeline."

Potential customers can pre-order their socks by visiting the company's e-commerce website https://hygieiasport.com/ or the Hygieia product page (http://www.hygieiatech.com/) under the Umbra Applied Technologies corporate website. In a few weeks customers will begin receiving the most advanced sock ever made. The company will prioritize all pre-orders over organic traffic.

Umbra further added, "Initial beta-testers provided us with very valuable feedback and we look forward to incorporating their suggestions as well as the suggestions of our customers into Hygieia HP, our high-performance sock for truly demanding athlete's due in the coming months. The continued launch of the Hygieia product line-up will continue through next year incorporating Hygieia line of bedding for adults, children and infants, Hygieia Tactical, Hygieia Medical and a few other surprises I will announce in the coming months."
