Tommy John is redefining everyday underwear with its new collection powered by DRICOMFORT® GEO 365 — bringing advanced textile technology closer to the body.

Known for redefining the standards of comfort and fit, Tommy John has selected DRICOMFORT® GEO 365 to add a new dimension of intelligent performance—combining permanent moisture management, fast drying and thermal comfort within a sophisticated fabric platform designed for everyday wear.

DRICOMFORT® GEO 365 is engineered with hydrophilic and highly conductive minerals integrated into the textile during the dyeing process. Rather than relying on a conventional surface finish, the technology becomes an integral part of the fabric, delivering performance designed to remain effective throughout the garment’s lifecycle.

The technology helps move moisture away from the skin, accelerate evaporation and enhance the body’s natural cooling sensation. At the same time, its thermal properties support greater comfort as body temperature and environmental conditions change.

The result is a new generation of underwear that feels dry, fresh, breathable and comfortable — 365 days a year.

Performance Built Into the Fabric

• Permanent moisture wicking
• Fast drying
• Thermal regulation
• Enhanced evaporative cooling
• Mineral infused performance
• Long lasting functionality

The collaboration between Tommy John and DRICOMFORT demonstrates how advanced textile innovation can transform an everyday essential into a premium performance experience.

DRICOMFORT® GEO 365 — where intelligent textile technology meets exceptional everyday comfort.

DRICOMFORT® GEO 365 isn’t just another performance label. It’s a comfort-driven technology designed for modern activewear—especially leggings and tops that demand breathability, flexibility, and all-day wearability. By combining advanced fabric science with design, GEO helps designers create pieces that feel good in motion and at rest.

Below, we explore what makes DRICOMFORT® GEO 365 special and share five fabrics you can mix into your next collection to elevate comfort from good to unforgettable.

What Makes DriComfort® Geo 365 Different?

At its core, DRICOMFORT® GEO 365 is about movement and moisture working together. Leggings and tops built with this technology deliver these key benefits:

1. Temperature Regulation
Leggings and tops are constant-contact zones. They trap heat, absorb sweat, and amplify discomfort if moisture ins’t managed correctly. DRICOMFORT® GEO 365 was developed to solve these problems at the fiber level by using minerals that conduct heat away from the body while supporting fast moisture movement providing thermal regulation.

2. Next-Level Moisture Control
Sweat is a sign of a hard workout. But wet, sticky, damp fabrics are not. When fabrics cannot wick sweat efficiently, moisture stays trapped, leaving the garment wet and uncomfortable. This can lead to a cold, clammy feeling as the fabric cools against the body, disrupting comfort and performance. DRICOMFORT® GEO 365 fabrics pull moisture away from the skin and spread it across the surface rapidly so it dries faster and feels comfortable.

3. Permanent Performance
Because DRICOMFORT® GEO 365 technology is embedded close to the fibers during the dyeing process, it doesn’t wash out or degrade over time like topical finishes. That means consistent and long lasting performance, and garments that deliver on their promise long after launch.

DRICOMFORT® GEO 365 isn’t just another technology. It gives wearers leggings and tops that move with the body, not against it. By choosing fabrics that support breathability, moisture management, and thermal regulation, you create pieces that people reach for again and again.

Your next collection doesn’t just have to look good. With DRICOMFORT® GEO 365, it can feel good too. And that’s what keeps customers coming back.

Cyclists may talk about speed, fit, or style, but comfort is what keeps a jersey in rotation. DRICOMFORT® GEO 365 helps bridge performance and wearability, especially when designers think beyond basic moisture-wicking claims. Cycling jerseys must perform across long hours, high effort, and changing conditions. DRICOMFORT® GEO 365 technology was engineered to support this reality by managing moisture, temperature, and skin comfort at the same time.

Moisture Control That Keeps Riders Dry

DRICOMFORT® GEO 365 fabrics wick sweat away from the skin and spread it across the fabric surface for faster evaporation. This helps reduce cling, heaviness, and chill keeping the riders dry and comfortable.

Temperature Balance on the Bike

By drying quickly and supporting airflow, DRICOMFORT® GEO 365 helps stabilize body temperature. Riders stay cooler during intense efforts and warmer when speed drops, improving comfort throughout the ride.

Designed to Long last

DRICOMFORT® GEO 365 goes beyond basic moisture wicking. One of the defining advantages of GEO is its permanent performance. The mineral technology is embedded directly into the fiber—not applied as a surface finish—ensuring performance that endures. From a product lifecycle perspective, this delivers exceptional wash durability, and confidence that performance won’t fade over time so cyclists can experience comfort ride after ride.

To shape the next generation of cycling jerseys, we’ve curated five high-performing fabrics engineered for this category. Together, they express the versatility of DRICOMFORT® GEO 365 technology—empowering designers to create cycling apparel that delivers lasting performance with a refined, contemporary aesthetic.

On the course, comfort isn’t optional—it’s part of your performance. Every layer you wear matters, from the tee closest to your skin to the mid-layer that handles shifting weather. DRICOMFORT® GEO 365 fabrics bring mineral-powered permanent moisture control and temperature regulation to each piece, working together so you stay dry, focused, and consistent through the entire round.

The Base Layer: Your First Line of Comfort
A tee made with DRICOMFORT® GEO 365 sets the foundation. Its mineral-infused fibers pull heat away from your skin and push moisture out fast. Sweat doesn’t pool or chill. You stay dry while walking long fairways, and you keep the freedom to swing without distraction.

The Mid-Layer: Steady Comfort as Conditions Change
Golf weather is never predictable. DRICOMFORT® GEO 365 mid-layers smooth out the temperature swings—cooling you when your body heats up and helping retain warmth when the wind picks up. Because the minerals are inside the fibers, not added as coatings, the performance never washes out.

The Power of Layered Performance
When both layers use DRICOMFORT® GEO 365, the benefits stack. Moisture moves through the tee and into the mid-layer, then out into the air—quick and clean. Sweat is managed across the entire system, not just one piece. Instead of one garment working hard on its own, your whole kit works as one unit. That’s how you stay dry, comfortable, and locked in from tee-off to the final putt.

Soft Feel, Reliable Fit, Lasting Performance
Every DRICOMFORT® GEO 365 layer stays lightweight, breathable, and easy to move in. No heaviness. Just smooth, steady comfort that lasts round after round.

In Short: Wearing DRICOMFORT® GEO 365 across your tee and mid-layers gives you a complete moisture- and temperature-management system—not just a shirt or sweater. It’s the difference between managing discomfort and never noticing it in the first place. And when your gear stays out of the way, your game stays in front.

When designing running shorts, every decision shows up on the road or trail. Heat buildup, moisture retention, friction, and durability are not abstract problems—they’re felt immediately by the runner. DRICOMFORT® GEO 365 fabrics address these challenges at the fiber level, making them a strong foundation for performance short design.

Shorts Are the Heat and Sweat Zone
From a construction standpoint, running shorts sit at the intersection of high movement, high friction, and high perspiration. Traditional fabrics rely heavily on surface finishes to manage these stresses. DRICOMFORT® GEO 365 takes a different approach. Mineral-infused fibers actively conduct heat away from the body while supporting rapid moisture transport. This allows designers to build shorts that stay thermally balanced without adding bulk, liners, or complex ventilation structures.

Moisture Management That Supports Better Patterning
By efficiently pulling sweat away from the skin and dispersing it across the fabric surface, DRICOMFORT® GEO 365 reduces cling and saturation. For designers, this opens the door to cleaner silhouettes, lighter constructions, and more consistent drape—even during high-intensity use. Less wet fabric means fewer pressure points and lower risk of chafing, especially in critical seam areas.

Permanent Performance
One of the key advantages of DRICOMFORT® GEO 365 is that its performance is permanent. The mineral technology is embedded in the fiber, not applied as a coating. From a product lifecycle perspective, this means wash durability, consistent testing results, and fewer concerns about performance drop-off over time. What you design is what the runner experiences—every run.

Comfort Without Compromise
Despite its technical capabilities, DRICOMFORT® GEO 365 supports breathability and thermal regulation without sacrificing durability. This balance allows designers to prioritize comfort and performance simultaneously, rather than trading one for the other.

Designing With Intent
For apparel designers, fabric choice defines the success of a garment long before the first prototype. DRICOMFORT® GEO 365 enables running shorts that manage heat, control moisture, and stay comfortable under real-world conditions—all while supporting simpler, more intentional design solutions.

DRICOMFORT® GEO 365 isn’t just a fabric upgrade. It’s a performance system built into the shorts themselves. For designers focused on creating running apparel that performs consistently, feels good in motion, and lasts beyond the first season, it’s a material worth building around.

To drive the next generation of running shorts, we have selected ten high-performing fabrics tailored specifically for this category. The lineup includes ultra-light wovens, open and breathable constructions, soft-touch structures, and materials built for elevated performance silhouettes. Together, they highlight the adaptability of DRICOMFORT® GEO 365 technology—giving designers a strong foundation to create running apparel that meets modern performance demands while delivering a clean, contemporary look.
