82% Nylon 18% Spandex 4-Way Stretch Matte Milliskin Tricot Fabric for Swimwear
Product Description:
This matte finish swim fabric is engineered with a balanced 82% Nylon / 18% Spandex (Lycra) composition, constructed from 40 D/12F Nylon Fully Drawn yarn interknitted with 40D polyurethane (spandex) yarn in a fine warp-knitted tricot structure. The result is a smooth, soft milliskin hand feel with an elegant matte (dull) surface—no shine, no glare, just a premium, skin-friendly look that photographs beautifully and wears comfortably.
At 200 g/m² with a 152 cm width, this medium-weight 4-way stretch fabric offers excellent recovery, chlorine resistance and shape retention. It hugs the body with a second-skin fit while remaining breathable, quick-drying and durable—perfect for performance swimwear, bikinis, one-piece swimsuits, yoga wear, dancewear and athleisure.
