90% Polyester 10% Spandex Compression Seamless Circular Knit combines 90% polyester filament / 10% spandex with a Seamless Circular Knit construction. It is aimed at Running Tops that require low weight with fast moisture transport, and the reason is straightforward: stable dimensions and easy care at a competitive price, so Compression.

Why this construction works
The construction does the work before any chemistry is added. a seamless circular knit means tubular production that removes the side seam entirely, and that structure is what allows the fabric to delivers graduated support while remaining easy to put on under the conditions Running Tops actually face.

Performance features
- Compression: delivers graduated support while remaining easy to put on, measured by ASTM D2594 stretch and recovery.
- Hand and comfort: stable dimensions and easy care at a competitive price.
- Construction benefit: tubular production that removes the side seam entirely.
- 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.

Frequently asked questions
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.
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.
