Performance wovens
Lightweight woven performance for protection, movement and durability.
Performance wovens must coordinate yarn, density, stretch, coating and finish as one system. We develop lightweight shells, durable pants and club-sport layers using taffeta, taslon, oxford, microfiber and related constructions.
