»Synthetic fibre are fibers made by humans through chemical synthesis, synthetic fibers are more hydrophobic than natural fibers. Cotton, linen, wool, hemp: these fibers are absorbent, and will take on water until they are replete. Nylon and polyester, the two fabrics most commonly used in raincoats and umbrellas, are not naturally absorbent the way natural fibers are.
