Irina, 32 years old

I liked the fabric of interlacingfrom the first raa. I sew a lot for my children, so I think that there is no better jersey for kids. Children are very comfortable in things from trolley and, despite the fact that it is denser than a mop, singing is excellent for summer time. Extruded knees are easily removed when washing.

I recently bought a lot of things from the interloc, although I did not pay much attention to the name of the fabric. In general, the material I really liked - it is dense, smooth. On the surface there are no spools, which is just fine. From the disadvantages I want to emphasize that after the socks of the purchased products shrinkage appeared along the length.

Have got a dress from interloka. Very pleased that the material consists of cotton fibers. Of the advantages I want to highlight the longevity of the product and the fact that it perfectly withstand washing and does not shed. The material itself is dense, but not too thick. Any disadvantages for a week of socks of a dress have not noticed, impressions only positive.

The best solution for a warm season, in my opinion, is a tracksuit made of this fabric. It is not hot in it and thanks to a special interlacing of threads, the skin in it breathes. In addition, the material is soft, pleasant to the touch. I'm happy with the purchase, I think I should buy this suit for my child, especially since it does not cause any allergic reactions.
