Suggestions for dry quick yarn for different sports scenarios
By matching material properties to the demands of the environment, the performance benefits of dry quick yarn in sports can be maximized.
I. High-intensity aerobic exercise (running, cycling)
Coolmax 4-groove polyester fiber: accelerates sweat export through shaped fiber structure, transfers more than 80% of sweat within 5 minutes, keeps the body surface dry.
Superfine denier polypropylene: lightweight and fast drying, suitable for long-distance marathon or cycling scenarios, reducing the weight burden of clothing.
Top choice Unidirectional moisture transfer construction (e.g. TransDRY technology), hydrophobic inner layer and hydrophilic outer layer to prevent sweat from seeping back in.
Bottom Recommended Polyester + Spandex blend (15%-20% elasticity) to enhance flexibility of movement.
II. Outdoor extreme sports (mountaineering, hiking)
Microporous membrane composite fabric: both waterproof and breathable (e.g. ACTIVENT technology) to cope with rain and snow while maintaining breathability.
Nylon 66 yarn: 1.5 times more abrasion-resistant than ordinary nylon, suitable for complex terrain friction scenarios.
Water-resistant outer layer and quick-drying inner layer with Class III quick-drying standard (core wicking height ≥110mm) to ensure dryness in extreme environments.
PRUTAC nylon 66 + Lycra spandex is chosen for the rushing pants to enhance tear resistance and freedom of movement.
III. Indoor low intensity exercise (yoga, fitness)
Modal Blend: Natural fibers (e.g. bamboo fiber, milk silk) blended with polyester to balance skin friendliness and quick-drying performance.
Modal (Modal+Cotton): Moisture wicking rate is 50% higher than cotton, reducing the feeling of clothing sticking after exercise.
Yoga clothes are made of double-layer mesh structure, the inner layer of hydrophobic chemical fiber quickly wicking away sweat, and the outer layer of cotton blend diffusing moisture.
The leggings are made of high elastic spandex blend (20%-25% elasticity), which fits the body and reduces constraints.
IV. Ball Games & Team Sports (Basketball, Tennis)
Iterated polyester + polyamide blend: anti-pilling and anti-static, suitable for frequent friction scenarios (e.g. basketball shorts).
Coolmax® hollow fiber: rapid heat dissipation, reducing the feeling of stuffiness in high-intensity confrontation.
The jersey is made of woven fabric with breathable mesh stitching and air vents in the underarms and back.
The shorts are lined with antimicrobial treated polyester to reduce odor caused by sweat residue.
V. General Principles
Low intensity (yoga, walking): Cotton blend (30%-50% cotton) combines comfort and basic quick-drying.
High intensity (marathon, mountaineering): pure chemical fiber (e.g. Coolmax, Nylon 66) prioritizes functionality.
Hot and humid environments: choice of highly breathable mesh construction + water-repellent top layer.
Cold conditions: inner layer of microdenier polypropylene to lock in temperature, outer layer of wind and water repellent composite fabric.
