Buyer questions
Nylon feels softer and more premium, holds colour deeper, and costs more. Polyester is more affordable, takes sublimation print sharply, and holds up well in the wash. For studio yoga and premium positioning, nylon wins; for printed volume and price-led ranges, polyester is the rational choice.
Sublimation dyes bond into polyester fibre, so it does not sit on the surface and crack like a coating. Wash fastness for well-processed sublimation is typically good; we test to the standard your market requires.
A brushed or peached polyester gets close, but not identical. Buyers who need the true nude-feel hand usually move up to the nylon quality. We will send both swatches so you can judge with your own hands.
300 kg per colour dyed-to-order for solid shades; print orders depend on the artwork and the mill's sublimation run.
