Abstract: A composite fiber that satisfies properties of both stretchability and wear resistance, and that exhibits a delicate worsted-wool feeling closer to wool, a deep natural appearance, and a satisfactory feeling is described, and a woven/knitted fabric and a garment including the composite fiber, where the composite fiber includes a polyester-based thermoplastic resin A and a polyester-based thermoplastic resin B, and satisfies requirements (1) to (4): (1) a difference (MA?MB) between a weight average molecular weight MA of the polyester-based thermoplastic resin A and a weight average molecular weight MB of the polyester-based thermoplastic resin B is 2,000 to 15,000; (2) in the composite fiber, an apparent thick/thin ratio (Dthick/Dthin) of the composite fiber is 1.05 to 3.

Abstract: To provide a woven/knitted fabric having excellent fabric/skin separation, a woven/knitted fabric is provided that includes C-shaped cross-section fibers, wherein an average standard deviation Sq of surface roughness of at least one surface of the woven/knitted fabric is 5 ?m or more and 100 ?m or less, and a ratio (Sqs/Sq) of an average standard deviation Sqs of surface roughness of the one surface when the woven/knitted fabric is elongated by 10% to the average standard deviation Sq, is 0.85 or more and 2.00 or less.

Abstract: A composite fiber includes: two or more kinds of polymers that have different dissolution rates in a solvent and are laminated in a direction from a fiber center to a fiber surface in a fiber cross section, in which an innermost layer including the fiber center includes an easily soluble polymer, and two kinds of hardly soluble polymers having different melting points are unevenly distributed in at least one layer other than the innermost layer.

Abstract: Objects of the present invention are to provide a woven/knitted fabric that does not inhibit movement of the body and that has excellent wearing feel, and is particularly suitable for use in garments, as well as garments using the woven/knitted fabric. Provided is a woven/knitted fabric at least partially including a false-twist yarn composed of an eccentric sheath-core type polyamide composite fiber having an equilibrium moisture content of 6.3% or less, the woven/knitted fabric having a stress ratio at 15% elongation in the warp direction to the weft direction of from 0.25 to 2.0.
