Ponte Roma Soft Knit Jersey Stretch – Durable & Comfortable Fabric
Ponte Roma Soft Knit Jersey is a high-quality, medium-weight fabric known for its softness, slight stretch, and durability. Made from 76% Polyester, 19% Viscose, and 5% Spandex, it combines the breathability of viscose, the resilience of polyester, and the flexibility of spandex, making it an excellent choice for comfortable and stylish garments.
With a weight of approx. 280gsm and a 150cm width, this fabric is slightly heavier than regular jersey but offers a gentler drape, making it less clingy on fitted garments. Unlike single-knit jerseys, Ponte Roma is double-faced, meaning both sides are smooth and usable, making it ideal for reversible designs. The small amount of spandex provides just the right amount of stretch for comfort while maintaining its shape and structure over time.
This versatile fabric is widely used in fashion, workwear, and casualwear, making it a go-to choice for dresses, skirts, trousers, blazers, and structured knitwear. It is a stable knit fabric, easy to sew, and drapes beautifully without being too clingy.
