EXPLORE THE LATEST DENIM INNOVATION

Check out the photos showcasing the latest groundbreaking denim technology unveiled at Kingpins Amsterdam! Jac Cameron, an expert insider in the jeanswear and fashion segments, collaborated with The LYCRA Company and studied how to use and help designers use LYCRA FitSense® denim technology.  Through collaboration and extensive testing, Cameron innovates garment construction by incorporating darts, curved side seams, and shaped seams, ultimately shaping her future design philosophy around customer-centric, thoughtfully designed pieces.

Pioneering LYCRA® ADAPTIV Fiber

Rethink denim with the properties of LYCRA® ADAPTIV fiber. Its unique chemistry makes it ideal for various body types, particularly in low-rise silhouettes where the "easy stretch" feature maximizes comfort. With excellent soft stretch properties, even after repeated washes, it extends garment wear life and promotes size inclusivity with "one-size-fits-more" garments.

Why LYCRA® ADAPTIV Fiber Source Fabrics

Game-Changing Impact of LYCRA® XFIT Technology

Transform denim with a patented innovation offering new design opportunities in bi-stretch denim. Fabrics developed with LYCRA® XFIT technology give an authentic vintage look with 360-degree stretch and a soft feel, avoiding the unwanted gummy touch of traditional bi-stretch fabrics. This technology supports a stable fabric stretch with easy control for better size consistency, allows for creating two layers of denim for warmth, and reduces bag and sag, providing a better fit and ensuring a prolonged wearing experience.

Why LYCRA® XFIT Technology Source Fabrics

Visionary Sustainable Solutions

Coming soon! Bio-derived LYCRA® fiber made with QIRA® uses field corn instead of a fossil-based input to reduce the carbon footprint of LYCRA® fiber by up to 44 percent*. This sustainable product will help reduce the environmental impact of products while offering the equivalent performance as original LYCRA® fiber, eliminating the need for significant production changes or re-engineering of fabrics or patterns.
