Default Various Fabrics?

As a newbie who is trying to assemble some cool/cold weather paddling
clothes I'm rather confused by the various fabrics. I was told that
Polypro was a good paddling fabric but the items I have purchased still
seem to hold water -- not like cotton -- but still they hold water and
require hours to dry. I am suspecting that there is a conflict between
wanting a "wicking" fabric and wanting one that is fast drying. Does
everyone here dunk their new clothes in a bucket of water and hang them
up to see what they have bought? Thanks.
