description Scuba Fabric Overview
Scuba fabric is a smooth, dense double-knit textile usually made from polyester, elastane, or a similar synthetic blend. Its thickness, stretch, and resilience give it a structured appearance that can resemble thin neoprene, while its surface is generally more suitable for clothing than true rubber-based neoprene. It is used for dresses, skirts, jackets, trousers, and other fitted garments.
