Heat-Retaining Hollow Fiber Knit

About XO Fabric

XO Fabric (Guangdong Shunde Mingyi Textile Co., Ltd.) was established in 2005 in Foshan, China, and has grown into an integrated textile manufacturer covering weaving, dyeing, and finishing under one roof. With 50+ technicians and a 2,000 sqm warehouse supporting hot-selling items, we combine stable production control with responsive development for buyers in Europe and North America. This Heat-Retaining Hollow Fiber Knit (180 GSM) is engineered for warm, lightweight performance—an efficient thermal option for wholesale brands producing base layers, cold-weather sportswear, and outdoor insulation.

Product Highlights

• 30% warmer heat retention effect: The hollow fiber structure traps more still air inside the knit, helping the fabric retain body heat more effectively than standard flat polyester knits. For manufacturers, this supports a warmer feel without adding heavy bulk—useful for garments that need mobility and comfort.
• Hollow Core Technology in 100% polyester: Each fiber’s hollow core is designed to enhance insulation while keeping the hand feel flexible. This means your finished products can maintain thermal performance while staying suitable for everyday wear and active use.
• Moisture wicking for comfort in cold conditions: The knit construction supports faster moisture movement away from the skin. For end-users, that helps reduce clammy discomfort during layering and movement, supporting longer wear in outdoor or sports applications.
• 180 GSM lightweight insulation: At 180 GSM, the fabric is substantial enough for cold-season insulation while avoiding the heaviness typical of thicker thermal materials. This makes it a practical choice for base-layer systems and multi-layer dressing.
• Wide width of 150 cm for efficient cutting: The 150 cm fabric width helps garment makers optimize pattern layout and reduce waste. It also supports consistent production runs when teams standardize on a single fabric spec across a product line.

Technical Specifications

Ordering & Shipping

Our MOQ for this Heat-Retaining Hollow Fiber Knit is 500m (547 yd). This order size is designed to help buyers achieve stable color lot consistency and efficient production planning for bulk programs, while also allowing you to align fabric supply with garment manufacturing schedules. For wholesale customers, committing to MOQ supports smoother finishing and reduces the risk of shade variation between smaller replenishment batches.

Production lead time is typically 10-20 business days (site-wide standard for all products). By running weaving and finishing as an integrated workflow, XO Fabric can better manage fabric readiness and reduce bottlenecks across the dyeing and finishing steps. Orders are shipped under FOB Guangzhou terms (with logistics arranged for Guangzhou/Foshan port access as applicable). We can also support OEM label and neutral packing options depending on your brand requirements, so your rolls arrive ready for your warehouse workflow.

Recommended Applications

Base Layers: This hollow fiber knit is tailored for next-to-skin thermal performance, delivering warmth without excessive thickness. The 180 GSM weight supports everyday layering systems and helps maintain comfort during commuting, travel, or daily outdoor use. Buyers such as activewear and performance basics brands can use it to create long-sleeve tops, leggings, and thermal underwear with reliable insulation.

Thermal Underwear: With its heat-retaining hollow core structure, the fabric is well suited for thermal underwear lines that target colder climates. Moisture wicking helps keep the wearer feeling drier and more comfortable, especially during changing activity levels. Wholesale manufacturers can count on the fabric’s balance of warmth and lightweight feel for consistent product performance.

Ski Wear: Ski apparel requires strong insulation while still supporting movement and layering under shells. This fabric’s warmer performance (30% warmer heat retention effect) helps enhance thermal zones for base layers used under ski jackets and pants. Apparel developers who serve winter sports markets will find it practical for building warm, lightweight underlayers that don’t overly restrict mobility.

Outdoor Insulation: For outdoor insulation applications, trapped air within the hollow fiber supports thermal comfort in windy or cold settings. The knit construction remains light enough for multi-layer dressing, which is essential for variable weather conditions. Outdoor gear brands and contract apparel makers can use this fabric for dependable cold-season core insulation pieces.

Cold Weather Sports: Cold-weather sports demand both warmth and moisture management, and this fabric is designed to support both. The hollow core helps retain heat, while moisture wicking supports comfort during training or competition. Sportswear wholesalers can use it to produce thermal tops and bottoms for running, cycling in winter conditions, hiking base layers, and other performance-driven uses.
