Test moisture-wicking activewear by measuring how the fabric absorbs, moves, and spreads liquid under controlled conditions.
Recognized laboratory methods include AATCC TM195 for liquid moisture management; drying time requires a separate suitable assessment. A quick water-drop demonstration cannot establish every performance claim.
Ask a textile laboratory to select methods that match your intended claim and evaluate representative fabric after laundering to check whether the finish retains its effect.
