FT50 · Water Repellent / Breathable / Skin Friendly
Product Overview
FT50 is a lightweight woven fabric engineered for swim trunks and aquatic apparel that require water repellency, breathability, and skin comfort. The Poly Peach‑Tarim 288F construction combines 92% polyester with 8% spandex, producing a 115 g/m² material with a width of 57/58 inches. The yarn configuration 75D*150D with 157*105 density forms a peach‑skin surface that supports water repellency and a soft hand feel. The polyester composition provides tensile strength and quick‑drying properties, while the spandex content (8%) provides mechanical recovery after stretching. A water‑repellent finish reduces water absorption, allowing the fabric to shed moisture in wet conditions. The peach‑skin texture provides a soft, smooth surface against the skin, reducing irritation during extended wear. As a manufacturer and exporter based in China, we supply FT50 in standard export packaging (carton + layer) with flexible shipping (FedEx/DHL/UPS/TNT for samples, air or sea for bulk). Lead time is 15 days for in‑stock items or 35‑40 days for production orders, with payment terms structured by order value.
Core Advantages
Water Repellent Finish — The fabric is treated to reduce water absorption, allowing the fabric to shed moisture in wet conditions.
Breathable Construction — The open weave structure allows air circulation, reducing heat buildup during active use.
Peach‑Skin Texture — The Poly Peach‑Tarim construction provides a soft, smooth surface that is comfortable against the skin.
Quick‑Drying — The polyester composition supports rapid moisture evaporation, reducing drying time after water exposure.
Lightweight Build — At 115 g/m², the material offers minimal weight, suitable for aquatic wear.
Consistent Width — 57/58″ width enables stable cutting layouts and reduces waste in production runs.
Product Characteristics
Water repellency — The fabric is treated with a durable water‑repellent finish that reduces water absorption, allowing moisture to bead and roll off the surface.
Breathability — The open weave structure allows air to circulate through the fabric, reducing heat buildup and supporting comfort.
Peach‑skin texture — The Poly Peach‑Tarim construction provides a soft, smooth surface that is comfortable against the skin.
Quick‑drying — The polyester composition supports rapid moisture evaporation, reducing drying time after water exposure.
Recovery — The 8% spandex content contributes to the fabric's ability to return to its original shape after stretching.
Lightweight — At 115 g/m², the material provides minimal weight, suitable for aquatic wear.
Application Scenarios
FT50 is designed for swim trunks and aquatic apparel that require water repellency, breathability, and skin comfort. The fabric's protective and comfort properties make it suitable for:
Swim trunks — providing water repellency and breathability for pool and beach activities.
Board shorts — the quick‑drying and lightweight construction supports comfort in and out of the water.
Beach apparel — the breathable and water‑repellent construction supports comfort in sunny conditions.
Water sports shorts — the lightweight and quick‑drying construction supports movement during aquatic activities.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the water repellency rating of FT50?
The fabric is treated with a durable water‑repellent finish that provides resistance to water absorption. The water repellency is measured by the AATCC 22 spray test, with results showing 80+ rating on the initial test.
Q: What is peach‑skin texture?
Peach‑skin texture refers to a fabric surface finish that provides a soft, smooth, slightly brushed feel similar to the surface of a peach. This texture enhances comfort against the skin.
Q: Is FT50 suitable for saltwater use?
Yes. The polyester/spandex blend is suitable for use in both freshwater and saltwater environments. Rinsing with fresh water after saltwater exposure is recommended to preserve fabric properties.
Q: How quickly does FT50 dry?
The polyester composition and lightweight construction support rapid moisture evaporation, reducing drying time after water exposure.
Q: Can FT50 be custom dyed or finished?
Yes. FT50 is available in greige or ready‑dyed forms, and additional finishes such as UV protection can be applied upon request.
Q: What is the MOQ for FT50?
MOQ is flexible based on stock availability. Sample orders are accepted in small quantities via express; bulk orders are subject to production scheduling and minimum yardage.
