75% Nylon 25% Spandex Compression Double Knit combines 75% nylon 6 filament / 25% spandex with a Double Knit construction. It is aimed at Tennis and Golf Wear that require sun protection with a clean, structured appearance, and the reason is straightforward: higher power for compression grades that still run on standard knitting machines, so Compression.

Why this construction works
Because a stable double-knit construction is used, the fabric behaves consistently across the roll: body and firmness without any need for lining. That consistency is what lets a factory cut confidently and lets a brand repeat an order a season later with the same result.

Recommended applications
Used for Tennis and Golf Wear and for the accessories around them. sun protection with a clean, structured appearance is the reason it is chosen, and the fabric bonds, prints and sews on standard machinery without special settings.
Compression fabric prepared for Tennis and Golf Wear production
Dyeing, finishing and customisation
The fabric can be supplied greige, piece dyed or printed. Add-on finishes are selected after a wash durability trial, because a finish that disappears after five washes is worse than no claim at all.
Care instructions
- Machine wash at 30 degrees with mild detergent, no fabric softener.
- Dry away from direct heat and do not tumble dry hot.
- Cool iron on the reverse if needed, and avoid bleach.

Frequently asked questions
Is the performance tested on every lot? Yes. The named test method is repeated on bulk fabric, not only on the approval sample, and the report carries the lot number so results can be traced back.
What is the minimum for a first order? Development starts at 300 metres per colour, which is enough for a proper wear trial and a small capsule. Bulk pricing improves at 1,000 metres and above per colour.
