Hunter Green Micro Mesh Jersey Fabric 20 yd Bolt - Breathable Athletic

In this review of Pico Textiles micro mesh jersey fabric, the bottom line is simple: this 20 yard bolt of hunter green polyester mesh is best for makers who need a durable, breathable fabric for team uniforms and athletic apparel. The reviewer found the open weave knit and small holes deliver clear airflow without sacrificing structure, making it especially suited for soccer, basketball and gym garments. This review focuses on how the fabric handles sewing, wear, and cleaning during real use rather than marketing claims.

Key Features

• Highly breathable: The open weave knit with small holes allows airflow to keep athletes cooler during play.
• Durable construction: Polyester composition retains strength and resists wrinkling after repeated wear and washing.
• Easy to sew: The material cuts cleanly and holds stitches well, reducing time on production and alterations.
• Sized for projects: Sold in 20 yard bolts so one quantity reliably supplies long runs of jerseys or multiple uniforms.
• Print friendly: The mesh accepts sublimation printing and can be used for custom team graphics and numbers.

Who It's For

This fabric is ideal for small manufacturers, team managers, cosplay and costume makers, and hobby sewists producing sports jerseys, side panels, or breathable linings. Its combination of breathability and durability suits soccer, basketball, and other active sports where moisture management matters.

Those who should look elsewhere include anyone needing a heavyweight or tightly woven fabric, or projects requiring a solid, opaque face where small holes would be visible. Also, buyers requiring single-yard samples should note this listing sells as 20 yd bolts rather than by the yard.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Good breathability makes it comfortable for athletic wear and side panels.
• Durable polyester resists wrinkles and maintains shape after washing.
• Easy to sew and suitable for sublimation printing for custom graphics.

Cons

• Sold only in 20 yd bolts, which is less convenient for one-off small projects.
