We spin these super strong yarns in a circular knitting machine to create our unique double face Dyneema\/polyamide fabric. It’s 15x stronger than steel. As well as its extraordinary strength, Dyneema excels in cut and abrasion resistance and has a high resistance to chemicals and UV.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eFit Note: The Bowtex Elite V2 AAA-Rated Shirt fits true to size.
