Breathable Fabrics: Why They Matter (According to Tellar)

Tellar.co.uk’s extensive articles highlight the importance of choosing fabrics that both manage moisture and maintain airflow, especially during warmer months or active days:

  • Organic cotton & cotton blends: Call out their moisture-wicking ability without sacrificing softness—perfect for tee-shirts and everyday wear.

  • Linen & lightweight linen blends: Popular in breezy dresses, shirts, and trousers; Tellar notes they’re "excellent for high breathability, though prone to creasing—embrace the wrinkles!"

  • Tencel/Lyocell & modal: Highlighted in Tellar’s active- and loungewear articles—they feel smooth, wick away sweat, and resist pilling.

  • Bamboo-based fabrics: Detailed on sleepwear and T-shirt guides; described as “naturally antibacterial, soft, and supremely breathable."

  • Merino wool: In Tellar’s performance-wear sizing tests, it's praised for its “thermoregulating and odor-control properties.”
