Four pieces on picking a letter from a tape, where each inseam lands, what the fibre label says and how to wash a stretch knit.
Two measurements, taken once, decide every garment on this site. Which two, how to take them, what a seamless knit is supposed to feel like in the first minute, which sensations mean the letter is wrong, and why the rule about going up reverses on the pieces cut low.
A 2.5-inch short and a 6-inch short from the same family are two different purchases, and a 29-inch wide-leg pant and a 35 are for two different people. What an inseam is, how it is measured, where each of the eleven lengths on this site ends on a leg, and how to pick one from a pair you already own.
Ninety per cent nylon and ten per cent spandex is on most of the labels here, and the small number is the one that matters. What the labelling rule requires a maker to print, what a care label is legally promising, and which flammability standard everything sold as clothing in the United States has to meet.
A stretch knit is only as good as its spandex, and heat is what tires spandex. Pads out, cold water, no fabric softener, flat or line dry: why each step is there, what happens when you skip one, and what the label sewn into the piece is allowed to tell you.
Every VOYJOY length, every letter
Every inseam, colourway and size in the VOYJOY shelves sits behind this button, with the price from our last update against each one.
