It'll be a no-go for hiking given the extreme weight, but you might be interested anyway: a youtuber called Cody's Lab made himself a copper chainmail shirt[1], and did notice antimicrobial properties

- tbalsam 3y agoOh my gosh, thank you for sharing! I really appreciate it! :')))) <3 <3 <3 <3 :')))) I'm hoping to be below 12-13 pounds base weight this time, which is 18-22+ with food and water. Lots of ultralight people are in this general range (and lower! ;PPPP). I still have some cheaper, heavy gear (tarp being a big one). Swapping out a no-pack for my bulky 4.5 pounder internal frame should save me almost exactly under 4 pounds or so, getting me close to that goal. Woop Woop! ;DDDDDDDD Cody I think is an incredible human being. He inspired me with his silver nitrate video, sadly the acid/chemical burns long term were the big kicker. Maybe if totally necessary in a freak one-off situation?!? https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ooFw-teZ3L8 https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ooFw-teZ3L8
