'''Capilene''' is the clothing company [[Patagonia (disambiguation)|Patagonia]]'s name for [[polyester]] with a [[hydrophilic]] surface finish. Capilene's core remains hydrophobic (water repellent). Originally used in Patagonia-brand [[thermal underwear]] and in stretch versions where it has been blended with [[Lycra]], it is now available from Patagonia in everything from base layers to outerwear. Capilene is a very soft, warm material most commonly used in [[long underwear]]. Compared to [[cotton]], the warmth it provides at an equal thickness is much greater.
