Nylon spandex is often chosen for soft handfeel, stretch, recovery and a premium activewear touch. It is common for leggings, yoga sets and sports bras.
Polyester spandex can support quick-dry performance, print options and practical price planning. It can be suitable for training pieces, tops and some performance activewear.
Buttery soft fabric is selected for comfort-focused leggings and matching yoga sets. Buyers should confirm opacity, pilling resistance and recovery during sample review.
Compression fabrics help create a more sculpted fit. They are useful for leggings and supportive sports bras, but buyers should balance compression with comfort and size grading.
4-way stretch supports movement. Moisture-wicking and quick-dry properties are useful for studio, gym and travel activewear. Ask the supplier which fabric options match your end use.
Recycled nylon or polyester blend options can be discussed when they fit the product, budget, color plan and order requirements. Avoid claiming sustainability certifications unless documentation is confirmed.
Preparation
For leggings, focus on opacity, recovery and handfeel. For sports bras, consider support and lining. For yoga sets, check color consistency across top and bottom pieces.
