High-Performance Nylon Stretch Fabric for Sportswear and Underwear
Engineered for Comfort and Movement
In the evolving world of performance textiles, comfort and mobility have become top priorities. Our premium stretch fabric, composed of 80% nylon and 20% spandex, is specifically designed to meet the needs of activewear and intimate garment manufacturers. With a generous width of 165CM and a fabric weight of 135GSM, it offers a perfect balance of lightweight breathability and reliable structure.
This material has been carefully engineered for dynamic movement while maintaining its shape and integrity through repetitive use. The elasticity and wrinkle-resistance provide garments with a long-lasting, sleek appearance that can endure high-stress wear.
Why Choose This Nylon Blend Textile
Enhanced Durability in Active Applications
One of the key features of this fabric is its strength-to-weight ratio. Despite being lightweight, it offers impressive tensile strength and stretch recovery, which are critical in activewear garments. It is well-suited for high-performance sportswear applications where durability and flexibility are essential. Whether you’re creating yoga pants, fitted training tops, or sports bras, this material provides a reliable foundation for your designs.
Comfort Against the Skin
Comfort is a central element in underwear and performance clothing, and this fabric delivers. Its smooth surface and soft texture make it ideal for garments that sit close to the skin. The breathability of nylon combined with the resilience of spandex ensures the wearer experiences all-day comfort, even during intense activity. Whether used in a pair of seamless briefs or a compression legging, this textile adapts to the body’s natural movements.
Ideal Fabric Weight for Multi-Season Use
Versatile 135GSM for Layering or Standalone Designs
At 135GSM, this fabric hits the sweet spot between sheer and substantial. It is thick enough to offer coverage and support, while remaining breathable and flexible enough for all-day wear. Designers can use it in base layers, fitted activewear, or as supportive lining for more structured garments.
The light weight also means it dries quickly, making it particularly suitable for activewear used in warm climates or during high-intensity workouts.
Manufacturing Precision and Stability
Consistency in Width and Stretch Recovery
Our production process includes rigorous quality checks that ensure consistent width and reliable stretch recovery. The 165CM width makes this fabric compatible with industrial cutting layouts and bulk garment manufacturing. Additionally, its excellent form retention ensures garments made from this textile return to their original shape after repeated stretches and washes.
Manufacturers can rely on the structural stability of the fabric for use in seamless construction or bonded apparel design. The nylon-spandex composition also allows for easy integration with moisture-wicking or antimicrobial treatments, expanding its versatility across seasons and uses.
Applications Across Diverse Garment Categories
From Activewear to Everyday Intimates
This stretch fabric is widely used across various fashion and performance segments. Some common applications include:
-
Leggings and tights – delivering flexibility, shape retention, and support
-
Sports bras and bralettes – offering comfort, breathability, and firm elasticity
-
Performance base layers – ideal for both indoor and outdoor training
-
Underwear and shapewear – enhancing comfort with soft, resilient stretch
It performs equally well in casual sportswear as it does in specialized gymwear or technical outdoor apparel. Its compatibility with flatlock stitching, laser cutting, and heat-sealing techniques makes it a favorite among apparel engineers.
Wrinkle Resistance for Low-Maintenance Wear
A Clean, Professional Look Without the Hassle
The wrinkle-resistant feature of this textile makes it a top choice for travel-ready apparel and low-maintenance daily wear. This quality not only benefits the end user, but also supports logistics and retail presentation—garments stay fresh-looking on shelves and during transport, minimizing steam or pressing needs.
Brands aiming to appeal to busy consumers or athletes on the go will appreciate the long-lasting neatness of garments crafted from this textile.
