◀Is it cooler to wear quick-drying clothes in summer?▶
Pure cotton clothes: Because they are made of natural fibers, they are very skin-friendly and comfortable to wear.
Quick-drying clothing: Made of chemical fiber with a special structure, it can quickly absorb human sweat and evaporate it quickly using the outside temperature.
So for ordinary people, if they don’t exercise much or sweat much, pure cotton clothes are a good choice. If you have a fitness habit or go out frequently to exercise, quick-drying clothes will be cooler to wear.
◀This is how to choose quick-drying clothes▶
We can do a small experiment and lay the fabric flat. A drop of water and see if the drop of water can be absorbed quickly.
If it is a relatively good quick-drying garment, it will spread out quickly after being dropped. If it is of poor quality or simply If it is not a quick-drying garment, the water droplets may remain in place or be absorbed very slowly.
Another method is to put the clothes to your mouth and blow hard. If you blow the air, there will be a lot of it soon. If the air comes out, the breathability is better. If it is difficult to blow out, it means the moisture permeability is relatively poor, and the quick-drying effect will not be very good.
Or, after buying the clothes, put a basin of water in it and gently put the clothes into the basin. If If it is good at absorbing moisture and drying quickly, it will absorb water quickly and sink into the water; otherwise, it will keep floating on the water.
Tips
From the perspective of breathability, quick-drying clothes are more breathable than pure cotton clothes. It is better, absorbs sweat quickly, dries quickly, is cooler, and is more suitable for people who exercise a lot and like to sweat.
But usually, it is cooler to wear cotton clothes because they are hygroscopic, breathable and comfortable. However, during exercise, cotton absorbs too much moisture and is not easy to dry. Instead, it feels stuffy. Everyone can choose what they want.
