Description
Black Cavalry Twill Fabric
Black Cavalry Twill is a beautiful, faced fabric. On the faced side of this fabric, the twill weave is clearly visible. This cloth carefully combines a worsted yarn, with a woollen weft. Then firmly woven, to highlight the steep, double twill lines, that are such a striking feature of this fabric. Furthermore, this fabric also uses 100% merino wool, making it an environmentally conscious choice, for clothing and fashion brands, looking to create sustainable designs. In addition, merino wool has a softness, warmth and breathability, that makes it a desirable choice for clothing.
Standard Weight or Finer Weight
Cavalry twill Navy Blue is available in two weights. In addition to this standard heavier weight fabric, that weighs 660gsm, there is a finer weight fabric weighted at 485gsm. The lighter weight version of the fabric has all the same features, but with added versatility. The lower gsm means that the finer weight variation offers more flexibility as a result.

Colour Variations of Woollen Fabrics
This 100% merino wool fabric is a natural material and colour variation is evidence of the natural origin of the material. Therefore the product colour is only indicative, as it is not possible to assure consistency of colour in a natural product due to the natural colour of raw wool and absorption of dyes. Colour matching cannot be guaranteed on shipments. The variation will be more pronounced beyond the normal commercial range.
