More than just breathable, it’s Directional!

Parameta® S is a reversible, asymmetrical, wicking fabric that Directs water to one face and captures still air in the other. By deciding which way out to wear the garment, you can choose whether you want to keep cool or warm in response to the temperature, your level of activity and your own physiology.

 

If you are working hard or are hot you need to wear the smooth face of the fabric next to your skin, which holds water close to your skin to evaporate and so keep you cool.
