A production-ready Seamless Circular Knit for Tennis and Golf Wear, specified around sun protection with a clean, structured appearance. Composition is 50% polyester / 42% polyamide / 8% elastane, which delivers a dense surface that takes sublimation print cleanly. Every lot is finished and tested so that Four-Way Stretch Recovery is measurable rather than claimed.

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 extends in both directions and returns without bagging under the conditions Tennis and Golf Wear actually face.

Performance features
- Four-Way Stretch Recovery: extends in both directions and returns without bagging, measured by ASTM D2594 stretch and recovery.
- Hand and comfort: a dense surface that takes sublimation print cleanly.
- 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 Tennis and Golf Wear, where sun protection with a clean, structured appearance 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
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.
