Performance/Fit

The perfect balance of beauty and power.

Enhancing the performance of fabrics and improving the way they look, DOW XLA™ fiber is designed to perform from factory to floor. Resisting sagging and bagging, clothes dynamically flex and bend with every movement.

Staying true to the essential charms of a host fabric, DOW XLA™ allows cotton to feel like cotton, wool like wool - hand, drape and texture are never compromised. That's not all. Materials with XLA™ have little shrinkage, excellent shape retention, are machine washable, and have minimum color change after repeated washings. Balancing beauty and power, consistency and malleability, and lasting aesthetic integrity, DOW XLA™ ensures that clothing maintains its original look and feel longer than ever.
