Pico Textiles Micro Mesh Jersey Fabric 10 Yd Bolt - Breathable

In this review of the Pico Textiles Micro Mesh Jersey Fabric, the bottom line is straightforward: this 10 yard bolt of charcoal polyester micro mesh is best for makers who need a lightweight, highly breathable material for sports jerseys and athletic uniforms. The reviewer found it easy to sew, pleasantly soft, and durable enough for repeated wear and use, making it a solid choice for small teams, costume makers, and seamstresses building breathable side panels or uniform linings.

Key Features

• Highly Breathable: The open weave knit design with small holes encourages airflow, keeping athletes cooler during activity.
• Made for Sports Apparel: The fabric is intended for football, basketball, soccer and gym clothes, so prints and cuts typical to jerseys work well.
• Durable & Wrinkle Resistant: Polyester composition holds strength and structure through wear and cleaning for longer-lasting garments.
• Easy to Sew and Clean: The material stitches neatly on standard sewing machines and washes without losing shape, reducing production time.
• Sold by Bolt: Each quantity equals a 10 yard bolt, so orders scale predictably for team kits or larger projects.

Who It's For

This fabric is well suited to home sewers, small apparel makers, costume designers, and athletic teams creating custom jerseys or uniform panels that require breathable, lightweight material. It is also useful as a lining or for projects that benefit from a soft, open weave.

Those who need very heavy-duty mesh, specialty technical fabrics with moisture management systems beyond standard polyester, or precision color-matched yards for large production runs may want to look at industrial or performance-specific textiles instead.
