And this is interesting! The structure of the microfiber from which the fabric is made is hundreds of times thinner than the structure of human hair. By layering one synthetic thread you can actually get up to 25 fibers, so velsoft is much lighter than genuine silk, wool, and cotton. But at the same time the fabric has a high density.
Velsoft
A thin pile fabric created from polyester threads and combining contrasts. The tactile sensations of the fabric are very delicate and soft, but at the same time it has great wear resistance. Velsoft is also quite lightweight, but at the same time durable and incredibly warm. Due to its texture, the fabric is widely used in sewing children's clothes, home textiles, and some winter clothing.
pros
- Very warm material due to its long pile;
- Does not lose its softness and original appearance, even after repeated washings;
- Hypoallergenic and environmentally friendly;
- Known for its antibacterial properties;
- Dries quickly after washing;
- Withstands increased loads;
- Doesn't shrink or wrinkle.
Minuses:
- Too voluminous;
- Poorly removes moisture, promotes increased sweating;
- Soft, loses shape.
Important! When choosing a product from this fabric, you should pay attention to the quality of tailoring, pattern and seams. Loose loops, asymmetrical patterns, frayed or oily areas and uneven seams highlight the poor quality of the fabric.
Fleece
Just like velsoft, it is a synthetic type of fabric made of polyester. This is a fleecy material, used mainly for warm clothes of all ages. Fleece, according to its characteristics and characteristics, is produced in different ways: single-sided, double-sided, thin, dense, and sometimes the necessary polymers are added to give the fabric special properties.
Pros:
- Moisture resistant;
- Excellent temperature retention;
- Hypoallergenic and air exchangeable;
- Light, soft and elastic;
- Easy to take care of.
Minuses:
- Stallability;
- With frequent washing, it quickly loses its shape;
- Just like velsoft, fleece does not wick away moisture well, so during intense movements the sweat glands actively work;
- Does not have wear resistance, i.e. With frequent wear, it quickly loses its original appearance.
Important! Caring for these two materials is the same. Do not iron at high temperatures, otherwise you may simply melt the fabric. Wash at a temperature of no more than 30 degrees, do not use bleach with chlorine. Stains are removed very easily - with a regular soap solution, if the stain is ingrained, then alcohol will come to the rescue.
Comparing the two materials presented, it must be said that the consumer still gives his preference to Velsoft. It is certainly better, more practical and meets all the most important requirements and requests of the buyer.If, as an example, we take the currently fashionable pajamas - one-pieces, Velsoft also clearly wins here. Firstly, pajamas made from this type of fabric are warmer, and this is a significant advantage. Then comes the appearance - clothes made from velsoft look festive, and besides this, they do not lose their original appearance. When it comes to how breathable the body is, fleece also falls short in this category. In addition, during production, fleece is most susceptible to chemical treatment. Velsoft is produced in accordance with international standards and is absolutely safe for both children and adults.
Important! Due to their low hygroscopicity, you cannot purchase sports suits made from the presented materials. Both fleece and velsoft quickly absorb moisture and retain it on the surface of the skin for a long time, which causes discomfort, an unpleasant odor and, at the same time, an unsightly appearance.
