Spanish term

tejido transpirable

Spanish to English Marketing Textiles / Clothing / Fashion
This refers to sports bra material.

I do not think that a fabric that a bra is made of can be referred to as "breathable,"
which is the only word I can find online, can anyone suggest just one word that
means that a material does not make a person sweat while doing sport other than
"breathable" please?

Thank you for any help.

No sweat :) A Google search for "breathable bra" gets 131,000 hits. And football shirts are amazingly breathable now compared to, say, 20 years ago.

breathable fabric

It's the only word here

There are two main types: compression bras which look like crop tops and flatten your breasts against your chest, or ones that have in-built cups, looking much like your regular bra but made of more breathable material.

Merino wool is the secret to this compression bra. It’s a highly breathable fabric which keeps you warm in the cold and cool in warm weather, while also giving you extra UV protection.
