Our Fabric
Premium Performance Fabric
Every EQL piece is built from technical performance fabric — engineered for athletic output with the soft, refined hand of luxury ready-to-wear.
EQL activewear is made from 75% recycled nylon and 25% spandex. The nylon is reclaimed from fishing nets and ocean-bound plastic waste, which cuts CO₂ emissions by up to 80% compared with virgin nylon. Every piece is knitted at 220–280 gsm with 4-way stretch, is fully opaque under squat-test conditions, and carries UPF 50+ sun protection — built for training outdoors in Malaysian heat. Designed in Asia, built in Vietnam, cut true to size for Asian body proportions.

Care Instructions
- Machine wash cold (≤ 30°C / 86°F) inside a mesh laundry bag for fitted pieces.
- Skip fabric softener — it coats the fibres and reduces wicking and stretch.
- Hang dry in a well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight.
- No tumble drying on high heat. Do not iron or bleach.
