How Sport Science Performs

We’ve all heard the benefits of performance apparel. There’s no question that performance shirts, performance shorts and even performance socks are the ideal choice when sweat’s involved. Performance clothing is designed to keep you dry by wicking moisture from your body, which ultimately helps to regulate the body’s temperature, keeping you more comfortable and more apt to perform at a higher level.

You’ve heard this story… a few times, probably… it sounds reasonable… but have you ever asked why?

Here’s a little lesson science behind Sport Science performance fabric…

Sport Science performance apparel uses drirelease™ technology to spin an engineered yarn that is made up of 85% synthetic/hydrophobic fibers and 15% natural/hydrophilic fibers.

Have you ever heard the expression, “opposites attract”? Well, so describes the relationship between our two polar-opposite fibers.

These fibers display the best kind of teamwork, as the hydrophilic fibers grab liquid and pull it away from the skin and the hydrophobic fibers push the liquid towards the outside of the fabric where it can evaporate quickly.
