FAQ
What's the difference between nylon spandex and poly spandex?
Nylon spandex has a softer, smoother hand and strong recovery, which is why it's preferred for swimwear and premium activewear. Poly spandex is more colorfast, usually lower in cost, and is the base for sublimation printing.
Can I get samples?
Yes. Samples are available from 1 yard, and color cards can be ordered online.
