Cool Dry fabric - for sale in Australia

Hi, I am looking for all the places that sells the either the "Cool Dry" or
"Drytex" or "Dri Gear" or "KoolDri" material (or similar fabric).
Please note that I am not looking for items of clothing, I am looking
for the raw
fabric\garment that you purchase by the metre.
1. I am looking for factory\shops that are located in Australia,
particularly Sydney and New South Wales(NSW).
2. I am looking for any exporters that are willing to ship to Australia

I see why there has not been an answer/comment yet on your question. I
looked hard for an answer, but the best I could find is a company that
offers eight different high tech "wicking" fabrics. The names of these
fabrics are similar to the ones you mention and they are offered in
yards (meters). The company is located in the USA, but they show
shipping info for worldwide delivery. Does this interest you?

Hi Redhoss, yes this is the type of information I am after. These
materials come in many different names, but essentially the same
thing. I will pay $20 bonus if you find one that is located in
Australia.

Yes, there are suppliers in Australia. This product is available from
Charles Parsons who are one of the largest textile suppliers in
Australia. Try www.charlesparson.com.au for your nearest supplier
address. They stock several types including a range from Kay Tobey
(Drytex, Drymax etc) as well as regular sports mesh in varying

Good luck.
