Frequently Asked Questions For Moisture Wicking Clothing

Moisture-wicking clothing is made from performance fabrics engineered to pull sweat away from your skin and spread it across the fabric's surface so it evaporates quickly. At Old Navy, this includes styles like our CloudMotion tees, Go-Dry shirts, PowerSoft leggings, and ProTrain shorts, all designed to keep you cool, dry, and comfortable during activity.

It works through capillary action, where tiny spaces in the fabric draw moisture off your skin and pull it to the outer surface. Once spread out, the sweat evaporates faster than it would in absorbent materials, helping regulate your body temperature so you feel fresh no matter how intense your workout.

Cotton absorbs sweat and holds it against your skin, which can leave you feeling damp and heavy during a workout. Moisture-wicking fabrics instead move sweat away and dry quickly, making them a smarter choice for running, hiking, or the gym, while cotton is often better suited to low-sweat, casual wear.

It's ideal for anything that makes you sweat, from yoga sessions and gym workouts to outdoor runs and hikes. The quick-drying properties also let you move straight from workout to everyday wear, so these pieces work well for travel, golf, and casual days out.

Think about your activity and how much coverage or support you need: lightweight tanks and tees for high-heat sessions, base layers for cooler weather, and leggings, joggers, or shorts for lower-body movement. Look for breathable, flexible fabrics that move with you, and use the size, color, and category filters to narrow down the collection.

Not exactly. Dri-FIT is Nike's brand name for its own moisture-wicking technology, while moisture-wicking is the broader category describing any fabric built to move sweat away from the skin. Old Navy uses its own performance fabrics, such as Go-Dry, to deliver the same sweat-wicking, quick-drying benefits.

Skip the fabric softener, which can coat the fibers and reduce their wicking ability. Washing in cooler water and drying on low heat or air drying also helps the material keep its shape and quick-drying properties longer.

Beyond women's and men's performance styles, you can find sweat-wicking active pieces for kids, including girls' activewear and boys' athletic-ready t-shirts. These keep active kids cool and comfortable during sports and play.
