RIBform Fabric Care Guide

WHAT IS OUR RIBFORM™ FABRIC?

For support without restriction and a firm hold that maintains its shape wear after wear, choose REC GEN’s signature RIBform™ fabric.

Designed for high-intensity activities from running to strength and performance, RIBform™ helps you move without limits thanks to its compressive ribbed construction. It’s specially engineered to support a full range of motion with all-way stretch and a secure fit that doesn’t constrict.

The Technology Behind RIBform™

RIBform™ is crafted from recycled nylon, elastane and polyester in a blend that benefits from RECycle™ technology. This innovation takes products diverted from landfill and processes them into fibres that are embedded with natural or virgin fibres. The end result is products that are stronger, with more resilient properties.

  • A compressive ribbed structured that supports 
  • All-way stretch for dynamic movement
  • Moisture wicking for your comfort and body temp control
  • High abrasion resistance for fabric that lasts
  • Two-tone rib texture that maintains its softness
  • RECycle™ nylon construction
What Is RIBform™ Built For?
  • Running: For long-distance runs, RIBform™ offers the support you need to power through every stride with all-way stretch to enable dynamic movement. 
  • High-Intensity Training: RIBform™ supports HIIT workouts and hybrid training with stabilising compression and moisture-wicking technology to keep you cool.
  • Strength Training: A Powermesh waistband lends stability as you lift, ensuring your leggings and shorts stay in place with every rep, while supportive under-bust elastic in sports bras brings a flexible fit.
  • Performance Training: Flexible yet firm, breathable and moisture wicking, reach peak performance in training sessions wearing RIBform™ sets.
  • Everyday Movement: For everyday activity, RIBform™ layers under women’s T-shirts and sweaters for easy comfort.
How to Care for RIBform™ Garments

RIBform™ is built to last. Ensure the longevity of your pieces by following our considered care guidelines.

To maximise each piece’s staying power, we recommend:

  • Washing on a gentle 30 minutes cycle and avoiding harsh detergents to help maintain elasticity, structure and moisture management properties.
  • Avoid washing with fluffy towels or fleece to discourage pilling.
  • Lastly, air dry in the shade to keep the fabric feeling its best.
