“…So, closely woven fabrics are constructed from microfilament yarn which results in small size of gaps to give maximum protection against wind and rain. The use of microfibers ensures that gaps in the fabric are very small even when dry (Mukhopadhyay & Midha, 2008;East, 2005). Moreover, the fabric and fiber surface is enlarged; therefore moisture is transported via more channels, since a better capillary effect is achieved (Rupp & Yonenaga, 2000).…”
