Ponte Roma in Nakoa garments

The composition of Nakoa’s Ponte Roma fabrics varies from one product to another. We use both cotton-based and viscose-based Ponte Roma fabrics.

The Ponte Roma fabric used in the Casual Chic Shirt contains 98% organic cotton and 2% elastane. Breathable cotton feels comfortable against the skin, while elastane adds stretch to the fabric.

The Interlock Ponte Roma used in solid-colour pieces from the Everyday Chic Collection contains 70% LENZING™ ECOVERO™ viscose, 25% polyamide and 5% elastane. Printed pieces are made from 95% LENZING™ ECOVERO™ viscose and 5% elastane.

Viscose gives Ponte Roma a beautiful lustre, softness and fluid drape. It also absorbs moisture well and feels comfortable against the skin.

Nakoa’s updated Comfy Pants are a great example of the versatility of Ponte Roma: the stretchy and comfortable fabric is combined with a smart and polished look.
