Its natural temperature regulation characteristics endow silk with the ability to cool and warm at the same time. Therefore, whether in summer or winter, the performance of silk clothing is better than other fabrics. As the second layer, the silk is warm and not bloated.

Silk is very absorbent. It can absorb 30% of its own weight without getting wet. Silk absorbs sweat and breathes your skin.

Although silk looks exquisite, it is relatively strong. Its smooth surface can resist dirt and odor well. Silk is crease-resistant and tear-resistant, and it dries quickly.

Silk is easy to color, wash, weave and sew.

Silk blends well with other animal and plant fibers.
