Fiber blends having hydrophobic fibers of both multiple staple lengths and multiple deniers of a single composition are disclosed. Yarns, fabrics, garments, and linens comprising the fiber blends with improved moisture management properties are also disclosed. Fabrics formed from the fiber blends have a water release rate at least about 10% greater than a comparative fabric that is compositionally identical but whose hydrophobic fibers are not both of multiple staple lengths and multiple deniers.
