Lightweight Power Dry is very light and silky and most of the colors and styles we offer also contain recycled silver salt that kills odor to keep your garments fresher between washes (noted by an OR, for odor resistant, in the style number). It's comfortable when worn next to skin and is an ideal lightweight base-layer fabric.
Some styles have a smooth jersey face and back while others have some degree of texture (see individual colour photos and description under the Specs and Features tab below). The Orange is a really fun and bright orange, not showing well in the photo!
Polartec PowerDry was created to give base layer fabrics greater efficiency, more dependable moisture wicking properties, faster dry times and better overall performance. Not all base fabrics are created equal and many can only provide temporary wicking chemistry that fades and weakens with every wash. By designing mechanical wicking fabric with patented bi-component construction, Polartec® created a superior base material that pulls moisture from the skin, expands for faster evaporation and lasts the life of the fabric. Moving moisture away from the skin and allowing continuous evaporation prevents your base layer from becoming saturated and helps to regulate your temperature in hot and cold conditions.
