Elastane-free stretch sportswear from Adidas

Herzogenaurach - Sportswear giant Adidas has launched a new collection of stretch garments which it says uses an innovative knit construction to dispense with the need for elastane fibres.
Branded as Twistknit, along with a woven version called Twistweave, Adidas says that after the garment is constructed, it goes through a further manufacturing stage where the yarns are coiled – or ‘twisted’ – to then act like micro-springs within the fabric structure.
