Polyester is a synthetic material used in garments that need to be water repellent, lightweight, breathable or able to transport moisture away from the body – whether working in unison or on their own, depending on the function of the garment. For a specific garment's characteristics, see its product description.
Elastomultiester, or bio-based Sorona® polymer, is a versatile and strong material from the DuPont company. The polymer consists of 37% plant-based ingredients from corn blast. The material is soft, moisture-wicking and returns easily to its original shape after stretching. Sorona® holds Class 1 certification from OEKO-TEX Standard 100. DuPont is a bluesign® system partner, meaning the company fulfils bluesign® standards as a responsible player with a commitment to sustainability in the textile value chain.
Elastane is a highly elastic, synthetic polyurethane fibre, also known by the brand name Lycra. The material is used in combination with other fibres to give fabrics additional elasticity. Elastane can be stretched up to six times its original length and then return to its original length.
The garment's material decides its characteristics and what functions the garment has.
