Pico Textiles 20 Yards Bolt - White Polyester Micro Mesh Jersey Fabric

In this review of the Pico Textiles 20 yards bolt of white polyester micro mesh jersey fabric, the bottom line is simple: it is a practical, budget-friendly option for makers who need a highly breathable, easy-to-sew athletic mesh for jerseys, uniforms, and lining. The reviewer found it especially useful for soccer and basketball apparel because the breathable open weave and small holes provide ventilation without sacrificing structure, and the 20 yard bolt sizing keeps project planning straightforward.

Key Features

• Highly Breathable: The open weave knit and small holes allow consistent airflow, which helps athletes stay cooler during activity.
• Durable Construction: Polyester composition resists wrinkles and maintains strength across repeated use and washing.
• Designed for Sports Apparel: Sized and constructed to suit football, basketball, soccer jerseys and athletic panels for uniforms.
• Easy to Sew and Maintain: The material handles standard sewing techniques well and is simple to clean, saving time in production.
• Sold by Bolt: Each unit is a 20 yard bolt, so quantities are easy to calculate for larger runs or repeat projects.

Who It's For

This fabric is aimed at home sewists, small uniform shops, and DIY teams that need an affordable, breathable mesh for sportswear or costume projects. It fits makers who want a reliable polyester knit that takes sewing, glue, and light customization without excessive fuss.

Those looking for heavyweight or insulated textile, very large holes, or a natural fiber option should look elsewhere; this product is explicitly a lightweight 100% polyester micro mesh made for ventilation and athletic use rather than cold-weather apparel.

Pros & Cons
