Is rubbing nylon noise a problem? I can't stand that nylon...

Is rubbing nylon noise a problem?

I can't stand that nylon to nylon rubbing noise like in that episode of Seinfeld where George Costanza's nylon pants make that annoying sound.

When you walk normally, does the armpits rub together and make that 'scratching' sound?

thanks

daw. I have not found the Compressor Hooded Jacket to emit anything close to the Costanza 'swish swish swish' and I have been wearing one for years. Now, it is still nylon and nylon rubs against things but again, it is nothing like what you are describing. I hope this info helps... good luck!
