Materials: Fabric - These Stirrup Leggings have been designed for 4-way stretch knit fabrics with 5-12% Lycra/elastine to create a snug fit. Your fabric needs to have at least 40% stretch. Lycra gives extra stretch and has excellent recovery. Great choices are cotton lycra, nylon lycra, and jersey polyester lycra. Increasing the amount of Lycra/elastine will provide a tighter, more compression feel to the fit.
