Niche markets... well, how about things like swimwear for an Olympic team (you'd have to find out specifics)

Dying cotton? Go the the Dylon website

Functional criteria - things that make it function aka work. If it's for sports, I'd try to go with a cotton blend fabric in some kind of knit, or a synthetic fibre that's been woven into mesh or something to allow for easy breathing (there are lots of very fancy weaves).
