Nylon Polyester Spandex Tri-Blend Breathable Mesh Power Mesh Knit combines 55% nylon / 35% polyester / 10% spandex with a Power Mesh Knit construction. It is aimed at Running Tops that require low weight with fast moisture transport, and the reason is straightforward: a cost-balanced hand with better abrasion life than straight nylon, so Breathable Mesh.

Why this construction works
The construction does the work before any chemistry is added. a high modulus warp knit mesh means controlled support at very low weight with maximum air exchange, and that structure is what allows the fabric to keeps air moving across the skin in high heat zones under the conditions Running Tops actually face.

Performance features
- Breathable Mesh: keeps air moving across the skin in high heat zones, measured by ISO 11092 thermal and water vapour resistance.
- Hand and comfort: a cost-balanced hand with better abrasion life than straight nylon.
- Construction benefit: controlled support at very low weight with maximum air exchange.
- Consistency: GSM and width tolerance are locked per lot and recorded on the inspection sheet.
- Durability: performance is verified after repeated washing, not only as delivered.
Recommended applications
The first choice for Running Tops, where low weight with fast moisture transport is the requirement that decides the fabric. It also converts cleanly into coordinated pieces in the same programme, since the hand and the shade run together.

Dyeing, finishing and customisation
Available in piece dyed, yarn dyed or sublimation ready form. Functional finishes such as moisture management, antibacterial, anti-pilling and UV absorption can be applied individually or combined, and each is verified against its test method before bulk release.
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.
Ordering, sampling and quality control
Trial quantity starts at 300 metres per colour with laboratory dips in five working days. Bulk lead time is 20-25 days after approval, and every lot ships with a test report, a shade check and an inspection record.

Frequently asked questions
Can we get recycled content with this construction? In most cases yes. GRS certified recycled nylon or polyester can replace the virgin yarn with full chain of custody documents, usually with no visible change in hand or performance.
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.
