Polyester is a very common synthetic fibre that is both strong and elastic. For example, fleece is usually made of polyester which has been shaped to contain a lot of air and thus provide exceptional thermal insulation properties.
Lightweight : Adds minimal bulk, making gloves comfortable for extended wear.
Moisture-Wicking : Quickly wicks sweat and moisture away from the skin, keeping hands dry.
Elasticity and Flexibility : Provides a snug fit, maintaining dexterity for precision tasks.
Quick-Drying : Dries rapidly after washing or exposure to moisture.
Weather Resistance : Performs well in damp conditions, resisting water absorption and maintaining flexibility.
Limited Abrasion Resistance : Less durable than materials like Kevlar® or PVC in heavy-duty applications.
Environmental Impact : Non-biodegradable and derived from petroleum.
Sports and Outdoor Gloves : Ideal for gloves used in biking, hiking, and other active pursuits due to its breathability and moisture management.
