Nylon-spandex
Performance Core
Our second-skin training fabric: four-way stretch, squat-proof opacity and quick-drying. Used across leggings, flare pants, sports bras and tanks.
The fabric system
Three fabrics, each with a job: a nylon-spandex performance core, a cotton-spandex soft core and structured polyamide. Plus the care that keeps every piece in shape.
Cotton-spandex
Soft Core
A brushed, breathable loungewear fabric with just enough stretch. Used for sweats, tees and pieces made for the rest of the day.
Polyamide
Structured
A smoother, crisper polyamide gym-wear fabric that holds its shape. Used for jackets, half-zips, tennis skirts and training shorts.

Sweat-wicking
Where your sweat goes.
The knit pulls sweat through to the outside face, where it spreads thin and dries.

The squat test
Stretch it in front of a light.
Thin knits open up when you go deep. Drag into a squat and compare a thin single knit with our performance core: 95% nylon, 5% elastane, made to stay opaque.

Fabric questions
How do I wash leggings so they last?
Turn them inside out, machine wash cold with similar colours, skip fabric softener and line dry in the shade. This protects the elastane so your leggings keep their stretch and opacity.
What is nylon-spandex activewear?
Nylon-spandex is a blend of nylon for strength and smoothness with spandex (elastane) for stretch. Our performance core is 95% nylon and 5% elastane for a supportive, squat-proof feel.
Is cotton-spandex good for the gym?
Cotton-spandex is best for low-intensity sessions, travel and everyday wear. For sweaty training we recommend our nylon-spandex performance core.
