Smartstrand (PTT) polyester fiber is deserving of its own subclass simply because the performance characteristics are far superior to that of a traditional PET polyester. The polyester name misleads a majority of consumers causing a lack of confidence in the PTT fiber. Classifying the PTT fiber as polyester is serving and will continue to serve as a detriment to its sucess. Thanks for your consideration.
