• Due to increased pressures arising from technological advancements, new product design and development has become essential in many areas, including the sportswear sector. Recently, sports activities rely on emerging technologies to develop
  textiles that have high performance value and varied applications. In addition, there is a growing emphasis on multi-functional smart sportswear since it enhances the wearers’ performance and protects their body from extreme conditions
  during activities. Th erefore, the awareness of comfort should be promoted in sportswear R&D.
  Sportswear can be both comfortable and multifunctional when smart technical design is combined with smart textile materials. Promoting this new type of product can generate a niche market in the sportswear industry, which has been rapidly
  growing since the late 1990s.
