Polyester fabrics maintain colour vibrancy, resist shrinking, and perform reliably under intensive use, making them ideal for teamwear production.
Interlock & Jersey Fabrics
Interlock and jersey fabrics provide a smooth surface and comfortable feel, making them suitable for both performance and casual athletic garments.
Typical applications include:
• training tops
• lightweight tracksuits
• warm-up garments
• athletic leisurewear
These fabrics offer flexibility, soft texture, and moderate stretch, ensuring comfort during movement.
Mesh & Breathable Fabrics
Mesh fabrics are designed to improve airflow and ventilation in sports garments.
They are commonly used in:

Selecting the Right Fabric
Choosing the right fabric depends on several factors including garment purpose, climate conditions, and branding techniques.
During the development stage, our team evaluates:
• garment function and sport type
• breathability and comfort requirements
• durability and maintenance
• compatibility with branding methods such as sublimation or embroidery
This ensures the selected fabric supports both performance and visual design requirements.
