DURAMAX

DURAMAX fabrics, created with LYCRA® lastingFIT 2.0 technology, address a major concern of both consumers and brands alike: durability.

Designing clothes so that they last longer, without sacrificing on comfort and style, is key to reducing environmental impacts, and also appeals to consumers who are increasingly interested in buying fewer but higher quality garment.

DURAMAX: STRENGTH MEETS COMFORT

The concept behind DURAMAX fabrics is strength with comfort. They are made from a blend of cotton with LYCRA® T400® fiber to provide performance and style as compared to ordinary 100% cotton denim fabrics and jeans.
