A refined micro houndstooth (or micro starcheck) fabric that beautifully balances classic visual detail with advanced textile engineering. This fabric achieves its distinct pattern and superior performance through a highly complex yarn construction: the weave combines a sturdy 14s pure linen yarn with a linen/rayon blend tightly twisted with a rayon filament, and is finished with a specialized polyester filament yarn.
Woven and expertly finished in South Korea utilizing premium raw flax sourced from North-East Europe, this innovative blend of 64% Linen, 22% Rayon, and 14% Polyester delivers remarkable functionality. The addition of the polyester filament significantly reduces wrinkling compared to traditional linen, while the rayon filament expertly enhances the fabric's elegant, fluid drape.
Weighing 164 g/sqm (4.83 oz/sqyd) across a 48-inch width, it sits perfectly in the light-to-medium weight category. Thoroughly pre-washed during finishing, it offers a beautifully soft, naturally cool, and slightly crisp handfeel, complemented by a very subtle natural stretch that provides elevated comfort and mobility.
