78% Recycled Nylon 22% Spandex Quick-Dry French Terry Knit is a looped back French terry developed for Team Uniforms where durability, colour consistency and easy care decides whether a style succeeds. The base is 78% GRS recycled nylon / 22% spandex, which gives virgin nylon performance with a documented recycled content claim. The result is a fabric that delivers Quick-Dry in daily use rather than only in a laboratory.

Why this construction works
Because a looped back French terry is used, the fabric behaves consistently across the roll: absorbency on the inside with a flat, printable outer face. That consistency is what lets a factory cut confidently and lets a brand repeat an order a season later with the same result.

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
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.
Can the weight and width be changed? Yes. Most programmes run between 140 and 340 GSM, and width can be set between 150 and 180 cm to match your marker. Changing weight changes cover and stretch, so we re-test before confirming.
