Default droopy

Not sure whether there is a false description there as different words are sometimes used for the same man-made fibres.
A little danger sign for the blue suit is "size 34 - fits 36 "
A shame that you should end up with apparent poor quality as so many users love their Endurance.

Elastane or Spandex (created from "expand" and the preferred name in North America) was invented in 1959 and its chemistry is a polyurethane-
polyurea copolymer - also known as Lycra (DuPont)(or was).
Many "Lycras" seem to me to be paper-thin so no doubt the fabric's blending counts
for a lot and there are many here who say "only nylon satisfactory for me".
