This is a term used to describe a fabric’s ability to pull moisture away from the skin. This is important to have in the crotch of a bodysuit, long leg panty, capri legging, high waist long leg panty, and a high waist capri bodyshaper.

Our Body Wrap™ Shapewear uses a purifil-lined crotch in all their body shapers, which releases humidity quickly providing ultimate freshness and hygiene.
