Abstract

The functionality requirements involved in the choice of materials aim to ensure a state of thermophysiological, psychosensory and dynamic comfort of the wearer as well as the ergonomic requirements and functions that relate to ensuring the mobility of the body. Obtaining jeans products by knitting methods ensures the improvement of their softness and comfort capabilities. From here came the author’s idea, to carry out a study on obtaining knitted structures imitation jeans that correspond to all the requirements mentioned. For this we chose 100% cotton yarns, which we knitted in several structures, in order to be able to choose the most suitable variant for making this type of jeans. In this paper there are presented three variants of knitted structure. The results obtained from the study show that the jeans knitted using type 3 method is the one that meets the most requirements related to the realization of a comfortable and aesthetically pleasing pair of jeans even under the conditions of a home office. The knitted structure can also provide a variety of models with general comfort values that are superior to those made of fabric structures. The knitted structure was made on the sir 123 fineness 14 rectilinear knitting machine, produced by Shima Seiki in Japan. These knitting machines use, for product projection, the SDS-One graphics station or the APEX graphics station- the variant of the last generations.
