Athleisure Fabrics

Athleisure fabrics have a few key properties: they are breathable, they’re wrinkle-resistant, they dry quickly, and they have odor control. A good athleisure fabric is comfortable and stretchy and can be used in high-movement situations, like for workout wear, but still looks nice in any range of settings. Athleisure fabrics can look like athletic wear (similar to spandex fabrics) and be just as durable, but they typically have a higher quality of craftsmanship - think along the lines of high-end yoga pants and sets! Athleisure fabrics can be used in garments that require movement and being active but are just as at home grabbing coffee or going out to brunch.

What Fabric Fibers Are Considered Athleisure Fabric?

Athleisure fabric can have a wide variety of fibers, including synthetics such materials as nylon, polyester, lycra, and more. However, semi-synthetic materials such as rayon and natural fibers such as cotton can also be included in athleisure fabrics.

Advantages of Athleisure Fabric:

  • Athleisure fabric is stretchy and soft
  • It is a breathable material
  • Athleisure fabrics are moisture-wicking
  • Its high elasticity means it keeps its shape

How to Best Work with Athleisure Fabric:

  • Use a stretch stitch as this is a stretchy fabric
  • An overlocker or overstitch machine is helpful for sewing athleisure fabric
  • Sew a test swatch to check for stretching
  • You may want to sew elastic into seams to help retain stretch
