Overview
Knit, mesh and raschel structures
In sportswear, fabric is an athlete’s second skin. Polyester and nylon knits carry moisture to the surface and dry quickly; mesh zones ventilate, and fleece adds a light layer of warmth in cold weather.
From training tees to tracksuits, team kits to outdoor mid-layers, every product needs a different structure. We talk through the use case — intensity, climate, washing frequency — and choose the right fibre and knit together.
Highlights
01
Moisture management
Synthetic structures that pull sweat away from the skin and dry fast.
02
Stretch
Knit structures and elastane keep movement free.
03
Lightness
Mesh and microfiber qualities you barely feel.
