Fabric recommendations:

Fabric type: Choose stretch jersey, rib knit, power stretch, or sports mesh with a smooth finish.

Fibre content: At least 70% polyester or nylon for moisture - wicking properties, with 10-20% elastane (spandex) for optimal stretch and recovery.

Weight: Light to medium weight (approx. 180-250 g/m2) - firm enough for support, light enough for breathable comfort.

Moisture regulation & breathability: Choose fabrics with moisture-wicking properties or micro-perforation for ventilation, especially at the back or underarm areas.

Finishing tip: Use flatlock seams to prevent chafing.

Finish with stretch stitches or overlocking for unrestricted movement. If desired, combine with mesh inserts for extra breathability.
