A production-ready Tricot Warp Knit for Hoodies and Joggers, specified around warmth without bulk and a stable brushed surface. Composition is nylon spandex with silver ion filament, which delivers antibacterial performance that survives repeated home laundering. Every lot is finished and tested so that Quick-Dry is measurable rather than claimed.

Why this construction works
The construction does the work before any chemistry is added. a warp knitted tricot means low curl, smooth and stable, which makes it easy to cut and bond, and that structure is what allows the fabric to releases absorbed moisture fast enough to be ready for the next session under the conditions Hoodies and Joggers actually face.

Performance features
- Quick-Dry: releases absorbed moisture fast enough to be ready for the next session, measured by AATCC 199 drying rate.
- Hand and comfort: antibacterial performance that survives repeated home laundering.
- Construction benefit: low curl, smooth and stable, which makes it easy to cut and bond.
- 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 Hoodies and Joggers, where warmth without bulk and a stable brushed surface 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 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.
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.
