The new fiber, says chemist John Ferraris, a member of the research team, is "probably one of the first realizations of taking something that has phenomenal properties at the nanoscale, and actually converting it into something that has size that you can do something with."

Cool Rugby Shirts And Sporty Rugby Boots At Lovell Rugby ... Rugby shirts were customarily made of cotton but other teams now wear polyester and still others choose to mix cotton and synthetic fabrics.  Polyester is the most common choice basically because it is more "slippery" than cotton or cotton blend which makes it harder to latch onto by potential tacklers.  Even though tackling is considered illegal during the game, this is very hard to avoid so designers designed the shirts to minimize the availability of loose materials to grip during tackling situations... Modern rugby shirts are figure hugging often with very small or no collars or buttons so as to provide less material for a tackler to get a grip of.  The shirts are also fashioned to absorb water and mud away from the body since Rugby is usually played in winter and/or during bad weather.  With short and sometimes long sleeves, rugby shirts are similar to polo shirts with stiff collars and rubber buttoned openings at the top.  Rubber buttons are traditionally used on the shirts so that they would come undone if pulled on in a game rather than have it popping off....

... when I awake in the middle of the night, since I knew not where I was, I did not even know at first who I was; I only had in the first simplicity the feeling of existing as it must quiver in an animal.... I spent one second above the centuries of civilization, and the confused glimpse of the gas lamps, then of the shirts with turned-down collars, recomposed, little by little, the original lines of my self.
—Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
