Junonia's Fabrics (Example Photos Follow) 1. QuikWik® moisture management fabric keeps the wearer dry and comfortable by pushing moisture away from the body. Made of extremely lightweight olefin fibers, it actually dries while on the body. It also has just the right amount of stretch to keep muscles slightly compressed for maximum efficiency. Knit

with 88% Polyolefin and 12% Radici Spandex, every piece offers a softly supportive feel that's not constricting. QuikWik® dries fast and fights bacteria and odors.

2. Dryline® is a duo-component fabric constructed of hydrophobic (repels moisture) fiber on the inside, and hydrophilic (absorbent) fiber on the outside. It provides superior moisture management and breathability. The smooth outer surface resists abrasion, stains and odors, and dries quickly while preventing moisture from returning to the skin during cool-down. Dryline® contains 71% Nylon, 12% Polyester and 17% Lycra®. Offers maximum comfort during extended workouts.
