About this fabric
Micro-mesh has small, evenly spaced holes across the whole surface. Air moves through it more freely than through a closed knit, so it is the usual choice for basketball vests and for the side and underarm panels of football and rugby shirts.
The trade-off is durability: a mesh snags more easily than a closed interlock, so we do not recommend it for full rugby jerseys or for garments that will be worn under contact. Sublimation works well, though very fine text should be kept to a reasonable size so the holes do not break it up.
Colours
White or light base for sublimation — the colour comes from the print, so any shade is possible.
Care
- Wash at 30°C inside out with similar colours
- Do not bleach or use fabric softener — it blocks moisture wicking
- Do not tumble dry on high heat; line dry
- Do not iron over prints or transfers

Our standard sublimation fabric for match jerseys: smooth on both faces, light, quick-drying and bright when printed.
Bird's-Eye Mesh
A textured knit with a tiny diamond pattern: more breathable than interlock and tougher than open mesh.
Recycled Polyester Interlock
Interlock knitted from recycled polyester yarn — the same performance and print quality as virgin polyester.
