Some apparent misunderstanding or perhaps just malaprop in this video, not to mention some is necessarily based on faulty terms commonly & carelessly misused by advertisers. To quantify any claim of 'wicking', weigh a square of fabric, dip an edge in water for a few minutes, & weigh it again. Wicking (yes, based on 'surface tension', rarely on 'capillary action') is the tendency for water (or other fluid) to distribute itself evenly throughout a fabric (including the skin side). The physics are complex, but the principle issue is the control of heat & water flow: evaporation at the skin, and then the condensation at the outer surface (releasing heat to the air). Wicking returns (redistributes) the condensed moisture thru the fabric, and back to the skin. . Wicking materials encourage heat loss by returning a good supply of moisture to the skin. In heat, you want to use wicking materials like cotton (the original wick). . Insulating fabrics can reduce heat loss by (not wicking) preventing the return of moisture to the skin. In cold, to retain skin warmth, you want to avoid wicking, by using wool, and other non-wicking materials. . In some special situations (like socks), you might want a thin wicking layer against the skin to prevent maceration, covered by a thick non-wicking, breathing (pumped by movement) air layer inside the boot. . PS: Side-note: The cotton wick in the in a closed system of a 'Heat Pipe' of some CPU coolers, can conduct a pulse of heat at the speed of sound. It is more efficient, but analogous to the cotton tee-shirt.

if you scotch guard the inside of a cotton shirt and leave the outside untouched w it, it will also be a wicking shirt, as long as you don't block the pores from the inner level to the outer... being that most wicking material is weaved differently and waterproof on the outside, shows that the weaving method is responsible for wicking. i understand ur frustration w this as it's not true wicking just as quantum computers arent true quantum computers. but the steps are the same and that's where we are in science shit right now.

Quite right on moisture distribution (he did say it involved surface tension though) and misnomers. Around 3:00 he seemed to confound it with moisture resistant clothing, where the water absorbance depends on the material type. Then again he could have been talking about layering several different clothes (for a hiker for example). (I could have sworn I replied to this yesterday but I might not have pressed enter... but it gives me time to read the top bit of your comment) However I'm not sure I agree about the circulative moisture model you propose: * Polyester /weave/ is good insulation, and does indeed recirculate moisture. Yet if it's woven, once warmed it can eventually expel a portion of moisture the same time. This moisture expulsion can remove heat over time. I would call it breathing for the moisture expulsion, and wicking because it recirculates, without absorbing water. I believe this to be the coolest fabric * I'm not sure what to call cotton. It keep moisture inside according to your definition, but I would argue this recirculation makes you eventually hotter not cooler. The reason is because of the material's water absorbance, a vapor equilibrium is formed. But the absorbance in the garment allows and favours an increase in humidity in the air between it and the skin. Furthermore, when this air becomes saturated with both moisture and heat, it makes it difficult to remove further heat from the body (without taking the garment off). I think that while you could call this wicking, as it does remove moisture from the skin, you would actually want to remove the bulk heat by moisture loss from the system (breathability) with a more moisture resistant material to remove it from the system. * Nylon similarly poses an issue. It's insulative, but also resistant to moisture, so no vapour equilibrium forms. So there's definitely no wicking in nylon as you say, and sweat lingers on the skin. However, nylon does breathe slowly, and remove moisture over time, reducing heat (especially if you move to aid convective airflow and evaporation). I would actually say in hot environments, nylon is my second choice to woven polyester, despite the insulative properties -- the breathing is just that important to me. However, I would posit that wool is able to absorb water to form an equilibrium (a good wick) and yet insulate (less bulk hot air flow) at the same time as letting vapour through (good breathability). Woolen socks are fantastic because they can wick a tiny bit -- they just have a low water capacity and breathe it out really well, so it's not as disadvantageous as cotton (nor as sweaty as nylon). Finally, I'm not sure that's a wick in your CPU cooler. That's usually a phase-change pipe (I can't remember the precise term). A coolant vaporises near the CPU and at the sink, condenses near the fan, and the vapour is drawn naturally to the sink because of the temperature difference. Anyway, thanks for the interesting proposal, have a nice day!
