    Sport Piqué is a 100% polyester fabric with a diamond-like knit structure and clear definition of detail, vibrant color and strong wash durability. Comfortable and lightweight with a delicate drape, Sport Pique’s soft, stretchy composition is perfect for moisture-wicking athletic apparel such as tennis dresses, yoga tops and headbands, offering a soil-release finish for enhanced laundering. Wrinkle-resistant and easy to pack in a small bag, this is also the fabric of choice for conference presentations and scientific posters—no sewing required.

    Sport Piqué Fabric is Best Used For:

    Polo shirts, active tops, athletic apparel, sporty dresses / skirts, headbands, science posters

    The [Spoonflower] variety is huge, the colors are reliable, and the ability to scale and customize designs means the fabric actually fits the garment, not the other way around. It’s rare to find a platform where you can test ideas, order swatches, and then wear the result.

    I've always enjoyed shopping at Spoonflower because I know I'll always find what I'm looking for. I often buy thrifted or vintage fabrics, but I will buy new fabric from Spoonflower because their business model is sustainable by printing the fabric to order and using eco-friendly, water based dyes.

    Not only can I find prints that match my exact vision, but I can also create or customize designs. [Spoonflower] allows me to bring my ideas to life in a way that feels both intentional and unique, and that is exactly why I keep coming back again and again.

    Sport Piqué Fabric FAQs

    Machine wash in cool water using a gentle machine cycle. Machine dry using a low temperature setting and remove promptly to avoid wrinkles.

    Designs print with crisp detail and vibrant color. Smooth fabrics show fine details clearly, while textured fabrics create a more natural printed look.

    Some Spoonflower fabrics may include a small amount of extra width for the selvedge (the finished edge of the fabric). This area helps prevent fraying during printing and shipping. The listed fabric width refers to the usable printed area, and any selvedge is included as additional width.
