Performance Pique
A moisture-wicking knit fabric with a textured, waffle-like surface commonly used in polo shirts, athletic wear, and corporate uniforms. Performance pique is typically made from 100% polyester or polyester blends with spandex for stretch. DTF transfers adhere to performance pique at polyester press settings: 275–300°F for 10–12 seconds with medium pressure. The textured surface of pique may require slightly firmer pressure to ensure full contact.
