The right sportswear material can be the difference between a terrific performance and a disappointing outing. But with a myriad of fabrics flooding the market, choosing the perfect fit for your athletic endeavours can be a bit tricky, especially when you have to focus on everything from temperature to player comfort and durability.
At VETO Sports, we’ve been on the hunt for the best sportswear fabrics out there. Here’s how we pick the best of the best, and how you can too.
Beyond The Fabric, What Else To Consider
While the material that goes into your sportswear is crucial, there are some other factors that can contribute to your overall sportswear experience. Seams and stitching are important to consider, since a design choice such as flatlock seams can help reduce irritation and chafing, ensuring maximum comfort. There are also odour control fabrics, made with antimicrobial properties to minimise odour-causing bacteria. Sun protection is another important factor to consider, especially in Australia! For outdoor sports, consider fabrics with built-in UPF protection to shield your skin from harmful UV rays.
