CoolMax is made from tetra-channel fibers which draw moisture to the fabric's surface and promote evaporation. CoolMax is found in activewear and accessories, including shorts, singlets, T-shirts, knit shirts, fleece, socks and performance linings. Tactel Aquator is based on a unique two-layered construction. The inner layer of Tactel fibers wick moisture away from the body to the outer cotton layer. The moisture is then dispersed over a large surface area away from the skin where it evaporates.
Lightweight layers are the key to any activewear wardrobe.
The moisture management layer is worn next to the skin to keep the body dry and comfortable. Often this layer can provide additional warmth as well. In truly cold climates, however, a layer of insulation is important. Insulations should be selected based on the activity and the weather. Heavyweight insulations, for instance, are most appropriate for low aerobic activities in cold climates.
