The BioLuxe™ White Paper: Why CiCLO® Nylon Outperforms Polyester

Nylon vs polyester leggings is a key comparison when it comes to compression gear. They may look similar, but what they’re made from—and how they perform—are very different.

Most Compression Wear Is Plastic

Most “high-performance” compression gear is made from polyester, the same plastic used in disposable bottles. It’s cheap and stretchy, but it’s still plastic. It traps heat, holds odor, and releases microplastics with every wash. This is the core problem in the nylon vs polyester leggings debate.

EveryRep Takes a Different Path

Our compression leggings and shorts are made from nylon, not polyester. Nylon delivers a smoother feel, higher tensile strength, and better stretch recovery. It grips your body firmly without suffocating it—supporting every rep, stride, and stretch. In short, nylon vs polyester leggings isn’t a tie. Nylon wins on comfort and durability.

Enhanced by CiCLO® Technology

We take nylon further with CiCLO® technology. This earth-conscious additive enables the fiber to biodegrade in landfill and ocean environments up to 25x faster, where traditional synthetics would last for centuries. It blends into the nylon at the molecular level, keeping full strength and comfort but allowing microbes to break it down at end of life.

Why It Matters

Polyester, regular Nylon, and Polyamide compression wear from competing brands will persist for centuries. Ours won’t. By combining nylon’s superior performance with CiCLO®’s environmental advantage, EveryRep delivers compression gear that performs and feels better now and matters later.
