History of Dri-Fit

The use of Dri-fit as performance wear dates back to 1991 when it was first introduced by Nike Golf. The company’s rationale is that an athlete’s clothing should also be part of his/her equipment, not just “what’s on your back”. Dri-fit technology has since been incorporated and utilized in every piece of Nike Golf apparel in different categories, from headwear to socks. Today, it is smart wear for runners, football players, and many other athletes, including those in training.

What Is a Dri-Fit Style Hoodie? (Performance Explained)

Dri-FIT is a moisture control fabric technology developed by Nike. The material quickly transfers moisture to the surface of the fabric, allowing it to evaporate faster and preventing the sticky feeling that often occurs during heavy workouts or humid weather. Instead of absorbing sweat, Dri-FIT moves it away, so your skin stays cooler and fresher for longer.

Today, the term ‘Dri Fit’ is used more broadly to describe the high-performance synthetic fabrics made with advanced fibre technology that enhance comfort, stretch, and breathability. More than just a fabric, Dri-FIT represents a clothing innovation that improves athletic performance and offers everyday wearability.

A Dri-Fit style hoodie refers to a high-performance polyester hoodie engineered for:

• Moisture-wicking

• Fast drying

• Breathability

• Lightweight warmth

• Shape retention during activity

⚠️ Important clarification:
Dri-FIT is a Nike trademark.
Newasia Garment Co., Ltd. does not manufacture Nike products.

✅ We manufacture OEM performance hoodies with the same technical standards, fabric construction, and functional results as Dri-FIT hoodies—customized for your brand.

Dri Fit Material vs Cotton

While both Dri Fit and Cotton fabrics are popular in apparel, they serve very different purposes. The table below compares their core differences in function, comfort, and usage.

Feature	Dri-FIT Material	Cotton
Composition	Made from micro-denier polyester or blended synthetic fibres with quick-dry technology.	100% natural fibre derived from cotton plants.
Moisture Management	Wicks sweat away and regulate body temperature quickly, keeping skin cool and dry.	Absorbs sweat and retains moisture; feels heavier when wet.
Breathability	Engineered with a mesh or interlock structure for ventilation.	Naturally breathable, but airflow reduces when soaked.
Comfort & Feel	Thin-structured, elastic, and maintains a fresh feel, especially during workouts.	Soft, skin-friendly, ideal for casual or low-activity wear.
Durability	Resistant to wrinkles, shrinkage, and fading; long-lasting.	Prone to shrinking, wrinkling, and colour fading over time.
Care & Maintanence	Requires mild washing, no fabric softeners, and quick-dry recommended.	Easy to wash, but requires careful handling during washing and ironing, and also takes a longer time to dry.
Odour Control	Often treated with antimicrobial or anti-odour coatings.	Natural fibre; may retain odour even after prolonged use.
Eco-Friendliness	Synthetic but can be made from recycled polyester (rPET).	Natural and biodegradable, though high water use is required in cultivation.
Best Use	Sportswear, gym wear, uniforms, and performance apparel.	Everyday t-shirts, casual wear, and feather-soft structured summer clothing.
Print Compatibility	Best for sublimation, heat transfer, or vinyl printing.	Excellent for screen printing and DTG (Direct-to-Garment).

Cotton may be a classic choice due to its natural silky texture and all-day comfort on non-athletic days. Yet, Dri-FIT is the modern winner, offering high-functioning, quick-drying properties, and being best suited for working out and other activities.

How to Print on Dri-FIT Hoodies

Printing on Dri-FIT hoodies requires specialized techniques to ensure your designs stay vibrant, durable, and comfortable—without compromising the fabric’s moisture-wicking and stretch properties. Choosing the right method based on your design, fabric composition, and usage is essential for professional results.

Printing Method	Best for Dri-FIT Hoodie Types	Advantages	Limitations
Sublimation	100% polyester, light-colored fabrics	Vibrant, permanent prints; breathable finish	Requires high heat; may affect stretch fabrics
Heat Transfer Vinyl (HTV)	Logos, text, accent designs	Sharp, opaque results; easy to customize	Can reduce moisture-wicking; may crack over time
Screen Printing	Uniforms, bulk orders, bold graphics	Durable, vibrant colors; cost-effective at scale	Thick ink can limit breathability; curing may shrink fabric
DTF Transfer	Complex multi-color designs	Excellent adhesion; works on various colors	Film may feel slightly textured; requires precise heat application
Embroidery	Premium branding, logos, text	Professional, textured finish; long-lasting	May reduce fabric stretch; not ideal for lightweight knits
DTG Printing	Detailed, photo-quality artwork	Soft hand feel; no color limits	Best on cotton-blend surfaces; may require pretreatment
