AN ESSENTIAL PART OF EVERY LIFE

  • LYCRA® fibre can be stretched up to seven times its original length without breaking.
  • Once stretched, LYCRA® fibre returns immediately to its original length – over and over again.
  • Long-lasting elasticity.
  • LYCRA® fibre is never used alone. It is used in all types of fabrics and blended with man-made or natural fibres.
  • It is invisible and doesn’t change the external appearance of the fabric.
  • Easy care: Garments with LYCRA® fibre do not need special maintenance.

LYCRA® ADAPTIV

LYCRA® ADAPTIV fiber has a unique chemistry designed to adapt its properties to deliver the benefits the wearer needs at any moment. At rest, this fiber delivers the right recovery force to maintain its fit and provide shaping and compression as needed. But when the wearer starts moving, it adapts to deliver comfort in motion, and stays in place providing a second-skin effect that’s easy to put on and take off. The result is an unparalleled new wearing experience. Due to its unique properties, it also enables inclusive and simplified sizing, potentially helping to reduce SKUs.
