This study investigates some comfort properties of cotton and polyester fabrics blended with varying ratios (%) of regenerated cellulosic fibres including Viloft®, ProModal®, and bamboo fibre. 23 types of woven samples made of Viloft®, ProModal®, and bamboo regenerated cellulosic fibres blended with polyester and cotton at different proportions (100%, 67/33%, 50/50%, 33/67%) besides with 100% cotton and 100% polyester fabrics were produced. Woven samples were subjected to some comfort tests including air permeability (mm/sec), wicking rate (mm/sec), water absorption ratio (%), and water vapour permeability index was also obtained. Statistical test results regarding fibre type, fibre blend components, and blend ratio (%) on fabric comfort properties were evaluated by using the SPSS program. In the content of this experimental work, it was revealed that fibre type, fibre blend components, and blend ratio have a significant effect on some comfort properties such as air permeability, wicking rate, and absorption ratio. However, those parameters did not have any significant effect on the water vapour permeability index at a 95% significance level.
