Nylon Spandex Copper Ion Filament Cooling Ice-Feel Single Jersey Knit combines nylon spandex with copper bearing filament with a Single Jersey Knit construction. It is aimed at Training Shorts that require abrasion resistance plus a comfortable liner, and the reason is straightforward: antibacterial action plus faster heat transfer away from the skin, so Cooling Ice-Feel.

Why this construction works
The construction does the work before any chemistry is added. a plain single-bed knit means the lightest way to get coverage, with good stretch and a clean surface for printing, and that structure is what allows the fabric to gives an instant cool touch and spreads heat away from the body under the conditions Training Shorts actually face.

Performance features
- Cooling Ice-Feel: gives an instant cool touch and spreads heat away from the body, measured by contact cool feeling measurement (Q-max).
- Hand and comfort: antibacterial action plus faster heat transfer away from the skin.
- Construction benefit: the lightest way to get coverage, with good stretch and a clean surface for printing.
- 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 Training Shorts, where abrasion resistance plus a comfortable liner 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.
Is the performance tested on every lot? Yes. The named test method is repeated on bulk fabric, not only on the approval sample, and the report carries the lot number so results can be traced back.
