S/S 2022 FUNCTIONAL FABRIC TRENDS
PERFORMANCE DAYS Munich

Trend Report SPORTS FABRICS SPRING/SUMMER 2022

The topic of the digital version of PERFORMANCE DAYS April 2020 „INSPIRED BY NATURE“ follows the trend of previous seasons, where sustainability of functional materials and environmental protection within the textile process have become increasingly important.

This fair is dedicated to natural fibers and ingredients that provide outstanding performance for functional materials without the use of synthetic additives.

In my expert talk webinar at the fair „THE PERFORMANCE OF PLANT FIBRES“ I presented these properties and some examples with focus on plants such as algae or cherry blossoms. Learn more here>>>

In this story of FUNCTIONAL FABRICS S/S 2022 I show my personal selection of fabrics and accessories focused on trends in patterns and surfaces, with a brief description of their composition. The use of recycled materials and addition of natural fibres is common to all product groups without compromising functionality.

More detailed information about the newest technical developments in the individual categories you`ll find in this magazine: „Sportsfashion by SAZ“, which is published in GERMAN and ENGLISH and can be downloaded  on the PERFORMANCE DAYS website >>>
