It is aimed at Training Shorts that require abrasion resistance plus a comfortable liner, and the reason is straightforward: antibacterial performance that survives repeated home laundering, so Moisture-Wicking.

Why this construction works
The construction does the work before any chemistry is added. a looped back French terry means absorbency on the inside with a flat, printable outer face, and that structure is what allows the fabric to moves sweat from the skin to the outer face so the wearer stays dry under the conditions Training Shorts actually face.

Frequently asked questions
Is the performance tested on every lot? Yes. The named test method is repeated on bulk fabric, not only on the approval sample, and the report carries the lot number so results can be traced back.
What is the minimum for a first order? Development starts at 300 metres per colour, which is enough for a proper wear trial and a small capsule. Bulk pricing improves at 1,000 metres and above per colour.
