The
Lab
tights that are being stretched, unbreakable, hosiery, close up of sheertex fiber, glass pressed from a model is not harming tights

SRTX LABS: Behind the scenes

We set out to prove the resiliency of the Sheertex® knit. It wouldn't be Sheertex if we didn't push boundaries. Typical textile lab strength tests kept coming back inconclusive since they aren't designed with stretchy hosiery in mind.

So we did what only we could do. We built an in-house lab and developed new ways to prove 4 textile strength measures: burst strength, abrasion resistance, yarn strength and tensile strength. We're talking robotic arms, 3D printed thumbs and more. Find out more about our next-level testing.
