Is dry fit polyester?

1. What is dry fit fabric?

Dry fit is a fabric specifically used for sports, made of microfiber, which can quickly transfer sweat from the skin to the surface of the clothes and evaporate. So it has good breathability and can keep the skin dry and comfortable during exercise. Because the composition of the fabric is usually 100% polyester, or a blend of a large proportion of polyester and a small proportion of cotton or spandex, so people often call dry fit fabrics as quick dry polyester.

2. What does dry fit fabric look like?

The surface of common dry fit fabrics will have very small gaps regularly distributed. Due to the existence of these small gaps, the dry fit fabric has a good moisture absorption and perspiration effect. Based on the differences in the size and shape of these gaps, people develop a series of dry fit fabrics gradually. The most common ones are pinhole quick-drying polyester fabrics and bird’s-eye quick-drying polyester fabrics.
