Carl MurawskiYouTubeNo DWR/Quick Dry
Quick dry action beads up slightly initially then absorbs like normal pants; technology does not match the performance of advanced moisture-spreading fabrics.
Strength
- Some initial water beading
Weakness
- Quick dry action underwhelming
- Eventually absorbs water like standard fabric
- Technology less effective than competitors
