Prolite® is a new age, lightweight, "cotton touch" nylon. It is treated with the latest fabric technology that transfers moisture from your skin to keep you comfortable and dry no matter what the heat or humidity. This same treatment also ensures Prolite® dries quickly as moisture in contact with the fabric is spread over the widest possible surface area for maximum evaporation. Cotton or fabrics with a water-repellent treatment cannot emulate this performance. These fast drying characteristics give Prolite® garments overnight "wash and wear" properties. Prolite® fabric is also crease and wrinkle resistant for iron-free wear. Earth Sea Sky's latest Prolite® fabric is now treated with a UV inhibitor to improve the sun protection factor.
