Properties:
Easy-wear twill cotton fabrics are perennial favourites for creating smart, stylish and hard-wearing apparel.
Mallard Green is meticulously woven from a high thread count of cotton and elastane yarns. The close silky twill-woven construction thus produces a light-mediumweight fabric with a subtle silken sheen. Apparel made in this quality fabric will be well worth the effort of paying attention to detail.
Gaberdine, drills and twills are practical and hardwearing thanks to a close weave construction with lightly raised diagonal ridges. Its fine twill weave, stable handle, light elastane ease widthwise medium-lightweight, reassuringly heavy drape and pleasing almost silky cotton feel, make a perfect for a plethora of practical and classic clothing.
This fabric boasts excellent strength, stability and a versatile handle. It will drape well (displaying the subtle sheen) and has a pleasing malleable hand, yet will hold crisp details such as collars and top-stitched panels; characteristic of jeans and utility styles. Depending on the patterns you choose you can style this fabric in a seriously smart way or something more casual.
