non-permeable textiles/a fabric lacking permeability Explanation: A fabric lacking permeability/breathability, especially when worn directly on the skin, is a perfect breeding ground for bacteria, micro-organisms -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 58 mins (2020-01-14 18:25:32 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Trying to accomodate the source text's intent: a fabric lacking built-in freshness |

moisture-wicking/sweat-wicking/wicking fabrics Explanation: ohne Frischeausrüstung: non-wicking textiles, fabrics without wicking properties Moisture wicking fabric is a type of specially engineered material that absorbs and ... only wicks away moisture but neutralizes odors to keep you smelling fresh! https://www.softiespjs.com › news › good-morning-america-loves-soft Some Spandex products, like Oakley’s O-Form fabric, feature something called four-way stretch. Says Stacy Dye, Oakley’s global product director: “The key benefits of O-Form are freedom of movement; less chafing; maximum comfort; and antibacterial and moisture-wicking powers.” https://www.shape.com/fitness/clothes/10-fitness-fabrics-exp... “Sweat-wicking clothes aim to take the moisture from your skin, disperse it onto the surface of the fabric, and allow it to evaporate into the air, Tempesta said. And the more the moisture disperses, the quicker it will evaporate. Because the sweat evaporates into the air, the clothes are able to dry more quickly than fabrics like cotton that absorb moisture….According to one NCBI study, athletes who wore moisture-wicking fabric were able to preserve their bodies’ temperature, especially in the high heat. This was achieved thanks to better ventilation and evaporation during intense training.” https://www.vice.com/en_us/article/d3nwdm/this-is-how-sweat-... |

stay fresh technology/fresh garment technology Explanation: We need something equally unspecific yet evocative as the German. We can always talk about moisture wicking, breathable, odor-free etc, but that would make it more specific and narrower than the source. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2 hrs (2020-01-14 19:31:20 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Oops, my second choice is "FRESH FABRIC TECHNOLOGY", not "fresh garment technology" "Odegon STAY FRESH TECHNOLOGY is used in Jackets, Dresses and Waistcoats keeping garments fresh and wearers feeling confident." https://fliphtml5.com/silg/yybe/basic "The HYDROPORE fabric has several additional attributes that support your physical performance during high-output activities. It stretches as you move and the S.FRESH fabric technology puts a stop to unpleasant odours." https://www.hadafitsale.com/index.php?main_page=product_info... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 9 hrs (2020-01-15 03:13:14 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- "Fabrics without stay fresh technology, especially when worn close to the skin, serve as a perfect breeding ground for microorganisms such as bacteria." |

Reference: Breatability Reference information: Breathability is the ability of the fabric to permit water vapor to pass through and to prevent the entry of water (Behera and Arora, 2009). The comfort properties of a fabric depend on its ability to transmit water and vapor from the body to prevent accumulation of liquid on the skin. |
