A crisp optic white and woven to last, this premium trouser fabric combines the natural comfort of cotton with the added durability of polyester. It has a smooth finish with a subtle sheen that gives garments a smart, polished appearance without looking overly formal. Strong, dependable and easy to wear, it's the sort of fabric that's made for hardworking wardrobes while still feeling refined.
Woven from cotton and polyester, this fabric is an impressive 166cm wide and weighs approximately 300gsm, giving it a substantial handle that's ideal for structured garments. It cuts cleanly, presses beautifully and behaves wonderfully under the sewing machine, making it a pleasure to work with whether you're sewing tailored trousers, workwear, boiler suits, aprons, chore jackets or utility style separates. Durable enough for everyday wear yet smart enough for a professional finish, this is a classic fabric you'll come back to time and again.
