Fabrics
The Auto-Sensor nanotechnology fabric maintains a constant, comfortable surface temperature, provides quick-dry moisture wicking, and UV protection of UPF 50+.
Auto-Sensor is a nanotechnology fabric with patented features that has been developed by Ventex. The fabric itself is a breathable, three-layer, 80 percent polyester construction with 20 percent polyurethane spandex for four-way stretch comfort.
The two primary functions of Auto-Sensor are moisture transport and temperature regulation. Hydrophobic and hydrophilic fibers suck perspiration moisture away from the skin and disperse it across the exterior fabric face for evaporation. The temperature regulation function maintains the next-to-skin temperature of the garment at a constant, comfortable level, keeping the athlete warm in cool conditions and cool in warm conditions. Auto-Sensor fabric is also antibacterial through the application of silver dioxide fiber technology.

For 40 years, scientists at Wacoal Human Science Research Center in Kyoto, Japan, have studied kinesiology, the science of human movement. They have tested over 35,000 people and analyzed injuries relative to warm-up and cool-down periods. They have come to understand the mechanics of joints and muscles in minute detail. This exhaustive study of body movement has culminated in over 50 patents worldwide.
Below are some further studies demonstrating the performance-enhancing qualities of CW-X Conditioning Wear.
Human Science Research Center, Kyoto, Japan: Study of electrical pulse activity in muscles
Muscles firing into motion were measured electromyographically for subjects wearing CW-X gear, subjects wearing competitor products, and subjects with bare legs. Electrical pulse activity decreased in unsupported and partly supported legs during exercise, indicative of fatigue. Legs supported by CW-X showed a negligible decrease in electrical pulse activity.

Human Science Research Center, Kyoto, Japan: Study of stability, impact, and motion
In this study, high-speed video analysis was used to compare stability, impact, and motion in CW-X products and regular compression gear. CW-X Support Web tights were 10 percent more stable and balanced and absorbed 12 percent more shock to the knee than regular compression tights. CW-X Support Web tops allowed 9 percent greater range of motion for the arm than regular compression tops.

This study measured VO2 oxygen uptake levels over the course of 15 minutes of running in CW-X gear, regular compression tights, and running shorts. CW-X Support Web tights showed 26 percent less oxygen use than regular compression tights and 36 percent less oxygen use than traditional running shorts, indicating lower energy expenditure.
