BEST PERFORMANCE SHIRTS MADE WITH POLARTEC® POWER DRY®

Sometimes staying dry is the key to staying comfortable. Lingering sweat can make us feel heavy, damp, and clingy. Power Dry® is the premier fabric engineered with superior wicking capabilities that moves moisture and keeps you dry.

Power Dry products come in styles that have the look of cotton, so you can have a casual t-shirt with mechanical wicking technology for the ultimate, go-anywhere, do-anything shirt. Our partners have found creative ways to incorporate Power Dry in their products, from leveraging odor-resistance to realizing extreme camouflage gear. We’ve compiled a list showcasing some of the most masterful uses of our Moisture Management technology on the market.
