MODAL!




http://www.wisegeek.com/what-is-modal.htm

It's soooo soft and cool against my skin; it's like an orgasm to the fingertips! I currently have one t-shirt and one bed-sheet made of the stuff. I plan to get more modal stuff soon.

I can stretch the fabric, fold it up and squish it, and it's perfect to wrap myself tight, like a mummy!

So anyways... has anyone else experienced the wonderfulness of Modal?

I don't see anything listed regarding moisture evacuation. Unless I see an advantage in this regard, I will have to consider modal as no better than cotton (which is horrible). I'll keep my Coolmax, thanks.

I've never heard of modal before. I wonder if it's as soft as my pillows (which are like suade except cheaper)

Oooh, looks very nice. Does it stretch out though? >_<

It probably does stretch out after a time, but I'm not currently having any problems with my sheet yet. I've had it for about four months now.

Modal is definitely cheaper and softer then suede. But it's texture is way different. But I think suede is equally pleasurable to the fingers.

Modal is better than cotton, in terms of moisture evecuation. I have not heard about your coolmax before, I will have to check it out!
