Home / Fabrics / Sportswear fabrics / Athletic Mesh & Eyelet Knit
Mesh is where cheap sportswear shows itself. A panel that sags, curls at the seam or blocks the airflow it was meant to create ruins the garment around it. This is the mesh we specify for structural panels rather than trim.

Buyer questions
Mesh is an open structure knit for airflow; eyelet is a closed knit with deliberate holes for a pattern and lighter ventilation. Eyelet holds shape better as a visible panel; mesh vents more air.
Yes, provided the tape and the mesh are compatible. Bonding gives a flatter, more premium seam — we can advise on tape selection when you specify the construction.
Open structures are more vulnerable at cut edges. Laser-cutting or bonding removes the risk that a sewn edge creates. This is a construction decision, and we will flag it before bulk.
300 kg per colour dyed-to-order; power mesh and custom eyelet patterns may carry a higher minimum set by the mill.
