The invention addresses the problem of providing a cloth and a textile product, which are extremely excellent in stretchability and sweat-absorbing and quick-drying properties and further have a natural material-like texture and appearance. As a means for resolution, for example, a cloth is obtained using a composite yarn containing a crimped yarn and a stretch fiber.

Cloth and fiber article

The invention addresses the problem of providing a flap-equipped knitted fabric including a flap part, which is configured such that the flap part moves when wet, allowing for changes in the air permeability or appearance of the flap-equipped knitted fabric, and also a textile product. As a means for resolution, for example, in a flap-equipped knitted fabric including a ground structure part and a flap part, the flap part is pouch-shaped, and the flap part contains a conjugate fiber obtained by joining a polyester component and a polyamide component in a side-by-side manner or an eccentric sheath-core manner, thereby making the flap part movable upon wetting.

Knitted fabric with flaps, and fiber product

A task is to provide a multilayer-structure cloth having excellent water vapor permeability, lightweight properties, stretchability, and thinness, and a method for producing the same and a fiber product. The task is attained by laminating a resin film on single circular knitted fabric which comprises a non-crimped synthetic fiber multifilament having a total fineness of 44 dtex or less, and which has a knitting density that is 45 to 130 course/2.54 cm and 55 to 120 wales/2.54 cm to obtain a multilayer-structure cloth.
