There is disclosed an elastic warp knitted fabric which exhibits excellent extensibility and extension recovery characteristics that said elastic warp knitted fabric gives good wearing feeling, has excellent motion followability, can contribute to improvement in movement function, further has no limitation in applications due to extension force thereof, and can be used as the material of a garment less likely to lose the shape due to wearing. The elastic warp knitted fabric of the present invention is the elastic warp knitted fabric knitted at least two reeds, and is characterized in that the elastic fibers are arranged on at least one reed and inelastic fibers are arranged on the other reed, respectively, both an extension force in the warp direction and that in the weft direction are 100 cN to 600 cN, in extension by 80% of the said knitted fabric, that the ratio of the extension force in the warp direction to that in the weft direction is 0.8 to 1.8, and also that both extension recovery percentage in the warp direction and that in the weft direction, after extension and recovery by 80% are repeated three times, are 85% or more. |
