Invista, owner of Lycra fibre brand and one of the largest integrated producers of fibres and polymers in the world, is introducing ‘Lycra Made to Fit You’ technology. This new garment construction is designed to deliver the optimal range of force and compression, which enables knee-high tops to stay up without digging into the skin.
According to the company, knee-high tops are frequently a source of discomfort for the wearer because knitters generally do not offer a choice of sizes. But this new technology offered by Invista combines secure stay-up power with non-constricting comfort across a wide range of leg sizes.

Explaining the technology, Invista comments that the research and technology team conducted an extensive wear test to correlate force and compression data with subjective reports of comfort and fit by women representing the full range of calf sizes. The result is a proprietary specification for a comfortable top using objective measures, and a band construction that provides non-constricting fit for all leg sizes.
“Best of all, trouser socks made with this technology provide better all-around comfort – regardless of foot and leg size – thanks to Lycra fibre,” Invista explains.
