World's first store selling hemp-made clothes exclusively has debuted in East China's Zhejiang province.
The hemp fiber, after being detoxified, excels at absorbing moisture, shielding radiation and ultraviolet rays, said Zhang Jianchun, a researcher with the General Logistics Department of the People's Liberation Army.

The store, "Han Ma Sheng Huo Guan," which opened in Ningbo city Friday, sells hemp-made products including clothes, bath towels and sheets.
"I'll try to see if they really have special functions," said a consumer selecting shirts in the shop.
