‘Cool touch’ fabrics are more comfortable and breathable thanks to a combination of specific fiber properties, yarn and fabric structure, and engineered moisture and heat transfer mechanisms. 

An optimal cool-touch fabric combines these properties – high thermal conductivity, smooth surface, moisture management, breathability, and quick-dry performance – to maximize comfort and cooling for the wearer, especially in warm climates or during high intensity activities.
