Open the interactive guide ↗How it is made
Fabric passes against abrasive rollers, commonly covered with a sandpaper-like surface. This modifies the exposed fibers rather than making a new woven or knitted structure.
How to recognize it
Look for a short, fine surface fuzz and muted luster.
Common uses
- Soft casual tops
- Peached trousers
- Bed linen
What to distinguish
Suede-like textile finishing does not make fabric into leather; commercial peach and suede finishes vary in intensity.
