If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me for confirmation regarding your specific needs.
When ordering fabric from an online retailer, it is advisable to seek printed spandex that features an 80/20 or 80/15 Poly/Nylon Spandex blend with 4-way stretch. This specification is required for all Run Chic by Sherry products.
Additionally, when placing an order through a Facebook online group, it is important to specify that "swim" fabric is needed to ensure it meets the required criteria for our products.
First, please choose “swim” as your fabric base when ordering from the pre-orders offered by these groups. If ordering online from a retailer, look for printed spandex / swim with 80/20 or 80/15 Poly / Nylon Spandex blend.
If you ever have a question about a fabric - please ask!
