The Technology Stripped Back

ultra rapid moisture transfer

Ultra Rapid Moisture Transfer – otherwise known as ‘Stay Dry Technology’ - Coolskyn wicks away sweat, transporting it to the face of the fabric where it evaporates, expelling the feeling of coldness and avoiding ‘skin cling’.

colour retention

Colour Retention - Tough and durable, it delivers constant retention of colour and shape and is colourfast to saltwater, sun and chlorine

ultimate pill resistance

Ultimate Pill Resistance - Appearance is everything. The surface area is built for heavy use and repetitive movement. It fights abrasion.

water vapour permeability

Water Vapour Permeability - As the body turns up the heat, Coolskyn comes alive. Water Vapour is pulled through the fabric and it ‘breathes’.

dimensional stability

Dimensional Stability - Created for extreme wear and washing, the nature of the weave laughs in the face of shrinkage.

uv protection

UV Protection - The ultimate sunblock for hard core sports. Coolskyn blocks 98% of UV radiation.

Anti Static Fabric - Coolskyn's anti static properties will reduce the amount of static within the workplace.
