Emptym is right, polyester fibers are generally between 12 to 25 microns. Even supima tends to only be approximately 17 microns at the smallest.
HH's comments make no sense. All of the technical "wicking" fabrics are actually polyester.
Part of the reason synthetics have the ability of feeling softer initially is due to the fact that they can be uniform. They will always bottle heat against the body and make you sweat, however.
