Home / Fabrics / Sportswear fabrics / High-Density Cycling Compression Knit

Buyer questions
230–260 gsm is the working range for the short panel. Below that you lose opacity under stretch; above it the fabric becomes stiff and the panel seam starts to irritate.
Martindale abrasion to the cycle count your customer specifies. Ask for the number, not the word 'durable' — that is the difference between a spec and an adjective.
Yes. Gripper application is a finishing step; tell us the tape type and width and we will confirm compatibility with the mill before bulk.
300 kg per colour dyed-to-order; compression qualities are dyed in dedicated runs.
