Denim Fabric: Construction, Thermophysiological Comfort and Future Trends

Denim fabric is widely used in fashion, known for its durability, versatility, and style. However, its effect on thermophysiological comfort, particularly in a variety of environmental situations, remains a source of curiosity and research. This review focuses at the intricate relationship between denim fabric structure and thermophysiological comfort, which include data from current studies in textile science, ergonomics, and apparel development. Fibre type, yarn structure, fabric weight, weave pattern, and finishing treatments are studied in terms of heat regulation, moisture management, breathability, and overall wear comfort. The effect of denim construction on physiological responses, such as skin temperature, moisture retention, and subjective comfort, is explored in a variety of climatic and activity settings. Furthermore, advances in textile technology and novel techniques to improving denim comfort qualities are studied. This paper aims to provide insights on optimizing denim fabric construction for increased thermophysiological comfort, to help to the development of more comfortable and functional denim apparel.
