Material Composition
This lightweight knit fabric (170 g/m²) blends:
- Tencel™ (Lyocell): A sustainable fiber made from responsibly sourced wood pulp in a closed-loop process. Known for exceptional softness, high moisture absorption (50% more than cotton), breathability, and a smooth, silky drape.
- Cotton: Adds natural comfort, skin-friendliness, and absorbency—ideal for sensitive skin.
- Elastane (typically 3–5%): Provides gentle, comfortable stretch and excellent recovery without compromising softness.
Common blend ratios include 60% Tencel™ / 35% Cotton / 5% Elastane or similar, optimized for next-to-skin wear.
Fabric Structure
- Knit Type: Single jersey or interlock with added elastane for 4-way stretch.
- Weight: 170 GSM — light enough for warm-weather wear, yet substantial enough to avoid sheerness.
- Surface Finish: Smooth, slightly lustrous (from Tencel™), with a soft handfeel and excellent drape.
- Performance Finish: Naturally breathable and moisture-wicking; may be enzyme-washed for extra softness.
