Footwear & Bag Spacer Mesh

3D Air Mesh for Shoes & Bags
Footwear spacer mesh fabric—also known as 3D air mesh—adds airflow, cushioning and shape retention to shoe uppers and bag panels. The spring-like spacer filaments spread pressure, dry fast after washing and resist deformation under daily use.
Key Advantages

High breathability & quick-dry comfort
Soft cushioning with stable thickness; anti-sag
Durable knit with abrasion resistance for outdoor use
Lamination-friendly (foam/EVA/TPU); easy to cut & sew
Finishes: moisture-wicking, anti-odor/antimicrobial, Pantone dyeing

Applications

Shoes: tongues, collars, quarters, heel padding, ventilation panels
Bags: backpack back panels, shoulder/hip straps, laptop sleeves
Luggage & cases: partitions, protective padding, breathable liners
