High Performance Wicking

Ever removed a garment to find that it is soaked in sweat? Or struggled to pull your shirt over your head because it is clinging to your sweat soaked body?

The patented unique ‘X-shape’ fiber structure created for Swiss Precision Active creates a capillary effect that quickly wicks moisture away from the body and distributes it over a wider area – maximizing contact with air to accelerate drying time.

Because Swiss Precision Active garments dry more quickly the fabric is less prone to wrinkling and riding, remaining comfortable to wear in all conditions.

Antimicrobial copper is a highly effective touch surface material acting as a natural sterilizer and killing 99.9% of bacteria within 2 hours of exposure.

Our patented 58% cotton, 38% embedded copper-nylon, and 4% spandex in our Swiss Precision Active fabric composition, combined with our accelerated wicking, means that our garments offer a high level of protection against bacterial and fungal infections.
