New Lightweight Base Fabrics, Structured Mesh, and Performance Swimwear — 5 Fresh Additions to Our Collection

This is a lightweight nylon base fabric with a dense, even weave. At 22gsm, it's sheer and smooth — the kind of fabric that disappears inside a jacket or dress and does its job quietly. Nylon gives it a softer, drapier hand than our polyester base fabrics, with a subtle natural sheen. 28 yards per kilo keeps your material cost low.

This polyester American mesh features a double-thread construction — two yarns woven side by side instead of one. The result is a mesh that's denser, more structured, and holds its shape better than standard single-thread mesh. At 22gsm, it's still light, but it's got real backbone. 28 yards per kilo.

This is the lightest structured mesh in our American Mesh H series. At 17gsm, it's barely there — but the high-density "H" weave gives it a skeleton that holds. The holes are smaller and tighter than standard American mesh. Nylon makes it smooth and soft with a subtle natural sheen. 36 yards per kilo — the highest yield in this batch, so your cost per yard is exceptionally low.

This is a heavyweight nylon spandex Swimwear Fabric with 25% elastane — near the top end for stretch. Pick it up and you immediately feel the weight and the power. Pull it and it snaps back with real authority. Nylon gives it a smooth, soft hand feel with a subtle natural sheen. 160cm wide.

This is a polyester spandex Swimwear Fabric in a full black yarn construction — the yarn itself is fully dyed black, not just surface-dyed. The black stays black, wash after wash. At 175gsm, it's the middle ground — solid coverage, comfortable 13% elastane stretch, not too heavy. Polyester handles chlorine better than nylon over the long term. 147cm wide.
