Abstract

A moisture-wicking and fast drying cloth has an outer layer and an inner layer. The outer layer is made of hydrophilic synthetic fiber and has multiple meshes. The meshes are defined through the outer layer. The inner layer is made of hydrophobic synthetic fiber and is bonded to the outer layer. The inner layer exposed by the meshes pulls away from a person's skin and protrudes into the meshes when perspiration exceeds evaporating moisture from the outer layer, so area of the inner layer contacting the person's skin will be reduced to make the person comfortable.

Claims (7)

1. A moisture-wicking and fast drying cloth comprising:

an outer layer being made of hydrophilic synthetic fiber and having multiple meshes defined through the outer layer; and

an inner layer being made of hydrophobic synthetic fiber and having

an inward side; and

an outward side being bonded to and contacting with the outer layer, and the inner layer exposing the outward side by the meshes in the outer layer and the inner layer protruding into the meshes in a direction toward the outward side to allow the inward side to form multiple concaves allowing the inner layer to form a waved shape when the outer layer expands.

2. The moisture-wicking and fast drying cloth as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the hydrophilic synthetic fiber is rayon.

3. The moisture-wicking and fast drying cloth as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the hydrophobic synthetic fiber is polyester.
