This amazing fiber delivers a second skin fit that stays in place to provide enhanced comfort in motion and an elevated wearing experience. LYCRA^® ADAPTIV fiber also makes it possible to create garments that offer a wider fit window to enable inclusive sizing that adapts to fit different body shapes within a size. 

A sustainable alternative using field corn to potentially reduce the carbon footprint of LYCRA^® fiber by up to 44 percent*. With our new bio-derived LYCRA^® EcoMade fiber, consumers can enjoy the same outstanding performance they love in the original LYCRA^® fiber. Plus, there’s no need to re-engineer fabric production, processes or garment partners.

COOLMAX^® EcoMade fiber is made from 100% recycled textile waste and helps reduce environmental impact by cutting carbon emissions and landfill waste. Plus, it keeps the wearer cool and comfortable with its moisture-wicking properties while maintaining high performance throughout the garment's lifespan.

THERMOLITE ^® EcoMade fiber provides cozy, lightweight, insulating warmth using fibers made from 100% recycled textile waste. It offers functional thermal performance for various garment types ranging from winter jackets to wetsuits and non-apparel products like sleeping bags.

With its inherent elasticity, this elastomultiester polyester fiber is an excellent replacement for textured yarn in a wide range of stretch textiles. LYCRA^® T400^® fiber provides a cutting-edge solution for stretch apparel, with shape retention and exceptional aesthetics. Additionally, it offers moisture-wicking properties, making it eligible for COOLMAX^® technology branding.
