Moisture Wicking
Wicking technology, used by the top athletic brands, keeps moisture away from the skin to keep you 4x cooler.
Lightweight & Durable
Lightweight, strong, and durable. Improved colorfastness (washing & sunlight), wash stability (garment sizing and shape), and strength are in the DNA of FORTREX® V2.
Self Extinguishing
Self-extinguishing fabrics that won’t drip or melt when exposed to flames.
Superior Flame Resistance
Patented fabric blend offers the most advanced flame resistance on the planet.
The Numbers
Don't Lie
FORTREX® V2 New Print Technology
We use a proprietary print method and specifically selected dyes in our coloring process. The result? The print of your garment is locked into the fibers of the fabric. This ensures less fading over time, without sacrificing the moisture management inherent in our best-in-class garments.
Wash Testing
Color change measured on a scale of 1-5, 5 being the best performance with little to no change.
Moisture Testing
AATCC 79 Absorbency Test measures time it takes for a drop of water to wick into fabric.

Safety
Flame Resistant Testing
Flame Resistant or FR means that once removed from the heat source, the material will not continue to burn. This is critical to the wearer's safety, ensuring that the garment will not contribute to injury.
To ensure flame resistance, FORTREX® V2 is tested under methods ASTM D6413 for Vertical Flame and ASTM F1930 Instrumented Manikin for Flashfire.
ASTM D6413 is a vertical flame test method that determines a textile's response to a standard ignition source.
ASTM D6413 test results
Does not drip or melt.
After flame - less than 2 seconds
Char Length - 4.5' or less
ASTM F1930, known as the Manikin test, defines a standard method for measuring the predicted burn of a flame-resistant fabric. This is based on a laboratory flash fire simulation.

Out-Wicking the
Competition
DRIFIRE FORTREX V2
V2 fabric features built-in performance to out-wick the competition. Engineered at the fiber level, DRIFIRE moisture-wicking technology won't wear out, even after extensive washing.
Horizontal and vertical wicking technology measures how fast a fabric will spread and move moisture over a certain distance—thereby speeding drying times. FORTREX V2 uses the same technology as the world's top athletic brands, allowing us to deliver consistent comfort to your team at twice the speed as our competitors—keeping you dryer & cooler.
Dry + cool = comfort
&
comfort = productivity.
Vertical Wicking
After 25x washings, time in seconds to wick 1 in.
Horizontal Wicking
After 25x washings, surface area water spreads in 1 sec
