Compression Fabric Guide

Definition

Compression fabric applies graduated pressure to muscles, improving blood circulation and reducing fatigue. Key characteristics: 20-25% spandex content, 230-280 GSM weight, high recovery rate (>95% after stretch). Used in sports bras, compression leggings, and recovery wear. Below 20% spandex, the fabric provides stretch but not true medical-grade compression.
