Lycra has introduced Dual Comfort technology for denim.

This is a sustainable innovation that combines comfortable stretch and cooling comfort with long-lasting shape retention. It was initially launched for wovens and ready-to-wear and is now also available for denim. These functional performance benefits come from the new Lycra T400 AEcoMade fiber, the fabric’s sole stretch fiber. This fiber contains both recycled and renewable content for reduced impact compared to virgin fibers.

Fabrics made with Lycra Dual Comfort technology are more resilient than comparable fabrics made from 100 per cent cotton, which helps apparel last longer. Garments made with Lycra Dual Comfort technology can be branded with LycraXtra LIFE. They also qualify for Coolmax branding.

Denim is a reliable companion all-day long – for work, leisure and after work. With Lycra Dual Comfort technology, jeans can be made from sustainable fabrics that provide the freedom to move, with cooling comfort and moisture wicking properties.

Lycrais a global leader in developing fiber and technology solutions for the apparel and personal care industries. Extending the lifespan of clothing is more sustainable because it reduces the need for raw materials to make new clothes, and can therefore help reduce carbon, waste, and water footprints.
