Activewear fabrics (performance fabrics) are renowned for their durability, moisture-wicking ability, and comfort. They provide breathability and ease of movement during workouts, team sports, yoga, hiking, and even casual everyday wear.
What Are Key Features of Quality Activewear Fabrics?
What Fabrics Are Used in Activewear Garments?
Designers typically choose tricot, interlock, jersey, mesh, and double-knit fabrics made from polyester or nylon, often blended with spandex for flexibility. Many of these options are also available in recycled versions for more sustainable collections.
The best fabric depends on the type of athleisure or performance wear being created. For instance, interlock and jersey are ideal for loungewear, yoga wear, leggings, and sports tops, while foils are great for performance garments like leotards and dancewear.
