‌The classification of sports fabrics mainly includes the following categories:

‌Polyester: Polyester is a synthetic fiber with high strength, good elasticity and poor water absorption. The advantages of polyester sportswear are lightness, easy maintenance, and wrinkle resistance. It also has strong wear resistance and pull resistance. The disadvantage is poor breathability and easy to generate static electricity. Polyester has good breathability and moisture discharge, acid and alkali resistance and UV resistance, but it is easy to generate static electricity.

‌Nylon: Nylon is a lightweight, wear-resistant and tear-resistant synthetic fiber material. Nylon fabric is more breathable and flexible, and also has good wear resistance and wind resistance. However, nylon clothes have poor moisture absorption and perspiration, and are easy to dye. Nylon has high strength and wear resistance, can withstand friction and pulling in outdoor environments, and has good wind resistance and quick drying.

‌Cotton‌: Cotton fabric is breathable, absorbent, and very comfortable. It is soft, easy to maintain, and wear-resistant, but it may shrink and is not suitable for high-intensity exercise because it absorbs sweat and becomes heavy. Pure cotton sportswear has the advantages of sweat absorption, breathability, and quick drying, but it is easy to wrinkle and has a poor drape.

‌Poly-cotton‌: Poly-cotton is a blend of polyester and cotton. It has the comfort of cotton and the durability of polyester, while having good breathability and wrinkle resistance.

‌Elastane‌: Elastane is a very strong fiber that can be stretched several times without breaking. It is often added to other fabrics to increase their elasticity. Common elastic fibers include Lycra and Spandex.

‌Knitted cotton‌: Knitted cotton fabric is light, breathable, elastic, and easy to stretch, making it an ideal choice for exercise. Its price is relatively affordable and it is a commonly used sports fabric.

‌Pure cotton cloth‌: Pure cotton sportswear has the advantages of sweat absorption, breathability and quick drying, but it is easy to wrinkle and has poor drape‌.

‌Velvet‌: This fabric emphasizes comfort and fashion, and is suitable for sports style that pursues a sense of luxury. But it is not breathable and heavy, so it is not suitable for wearing during strenuous exercise‌.

‌Nano fabric‌: Light, wear-resistant and durable, easy to carry and store. Its breathability and windproofness are also very good‌ 3.

‌3D spacer fabric‌: Using 3D technology to create a texture effect, it has the characteristics of lightness, good breathability, strong flexibility, and fashionable, beautiful and casual style‌.

‌Mechanical mesh fabric‌: This fabric can help the body recover faster after being under pressure, and the mesh structure provides stronger support effect, reducing muscle fatigue and swelling‌.

‌Seersucker‌: Mainly used to make the outer layer of sportswear, the surface has a three-dimensional effect, is light and soft, and is loose and comfortable to wear. Its unique air bag structure also has good warmth retention performance‌
