Breathable cotton for compression fabrics phase 2: performance testing

Compression athletic wear (CAW), made from synthetic fibres, is well regarded for better fit and performance. An earlier project developed an innovative approach for making compression garments from Australian cotton to compete with currently available synthetic CAW. This investment compares cotton-rich CAW against available commercial products to determine whether it provides more comfort and better performance.
