Understanding Performance Wear Testing
The global athleisure market is projected to be worth USD 517.5 billion by 2025, and active wear made up 40% of all online clothing sales in 2020. It’s fair to say performance wear is popular and will continue to grow, driven by consumers who want garments that respond to their needs.
This growth has led to a demand for performance testing, with brands and laboratories around the world under pressure to prove the claims they are making on their swing tags. In this webinar, we are giving an overview of performance testing, looking at the rise in demand, the composition of performance wear, and the types of testing required.
