4. INTRODUCTION
 Sports textile is one of the branches of
technical textile.In twenty first century, clothing is
an important issue for general consumer, active
athletes and for those who practice sports just for
fitness in their leisure time.

 i. Sweating – which stick the fabric with body
 ii. Feeling hot during run
 iii. Improper stretch ability
 iv. Extra weight of the fabric
 v. Give protection to body skin during fall on the ground
 vi. Inadequate fabric for fluid resistance for swimmer
 vii. Windproof, waterproof fabric for sailor
 viii. Light weight shoe with proper strength & air circulation
 ix. High tenacity & resistance to abrasion for the skiwear
uniform
 x. Improper gripping of the shoes during run etc.

8. PROPERTIES
