Nike introduces new fabric in latest yoga collection
Two years in the making, a new fabric from Nike is designed to allow “movement without restriction” with a focus on stretch, size, softness and smoothing. Nike Infinalon launched New Year’s Day as part of the brand’s latest yoga collection. 

The stretch and recovery of Infinalon is nearly double that of a fabric made from spandex, according to the company, without the “stretch lockout” of spandex. The fabric is also designed to have a thinner but stronger and more durable opaque fabric that doesn’t sacrifice coverage. 

“With this finer yarn woven into multiple layers,” Nike said of the new fabric, “yogis receive a high-density material at a low weight, which is why the collection's staple products provide a breathable, lightweight feel.”

The yoga collection debuting Infinalon is designed to be inclusive, serving all genders and body types, from extra small to plus sizes. Leggings, bottoms, shorts and bodysuits are currently available, and additional items are planned for release in April.
