INDURA Ultra Soft > Comfort

COMFORT

In the traditional clothing market more people wear cotton than all other types of fabrics combined. Cotton fabrics are the overwhelming favorite because they are synonymous with all weather comfort. Cotton fibers create an air pocket between the surface of a garment and skin. Unlike synthetic fibers, which tend to lie flat on the skin allowing moisture to become trapped, the space created by cotton fibers allows a cushion of air to circulate. Cotton fabrics absorb moisture from the skin, and wicking action serves as a temperature control device for optimum comfort. In warm months cotton breathes allowing moisture to pass freely through the fabric aiding evaporation and cooling. In cold weather cotton fabric provides warmth and protects against the wind without trapping body moisture.

This unique fiber structure allows cotton fabric to achieve superior comfort even when compared to lighter weight synthetic counterparts.

Comfort is a subjective characteristic, and as such, cannot be predicted by lab tests, or explained by charts, graphs or scales. Therefore, we encourage direct side-by-side wear trials to allow the ultimate wearer to experience the benefits of INDURA® Ultra Soft® first hand. The same cotton comfort that is desired in traditional "street clothes" can be obtained in work clothing of INDURA Ultra Soft fabrics.

INDURA Ultra Soft is available in soft lightweight denim shirts, tropical weight coveralls, blue jeans, brown duck outerwear and many other colors and styles. The garments look and feel just like the clothing people wear every day. The remarkably soft and breathable cotton comfort may forever change the perception people have towards wearing protective clothing. That’s COMFORT you should experience for yourself.
