LYCRA® fiber adds stretch and strength to natural leather

  • LYCRA® fiber is a man-made elastane fiber. Never used alone, but always blended with other fibers, it has unique stretch and recovery properties.
  • LYCRA® fiber adds comfort, fit, shape retention, durability and freedom of movement.
  • LYCRA® fiber can be stretched up to seven times its initial length before springing back to the original position once tension is released.

Natural leather stretches and distorts prematurely.

Leather with LYCRA® retains original thickness over time due to LYCRA® fiber which improves shape retention, and thus tensile and sheer strength.
