Quick answer: Moisture wicking fabric is any textile engineered to pull sweat away from the skin surface and move it to the outer surface of the fabric where it evaporates quickly. 'Wicking' refers to the capillary action that moves moisture through the fabric fibers — the same physics that draws liquid up a candle wick. Polyester is the most common moisture wicking fabric. Cotton is NOT moisture wicking — it absorbs sweat and holds it against the skin.

Quick answer: The best summer clothes are made from lightweight, breathable fabrics — 100% cotton, linen, and moisture-wicking performance polyester are the three core summer fabric categories.
