A 98% linen, 2% cotton double-face cloth combining two distinct looks into a single reversible textile. Woven primarily with 14s linen yarn, the face displays a muted white-and-natural windowpane grid plaid, while the reverse side presents a coordinating solid oatmeal chambray texture. The two layers are tightly integrated using very fine cotton binding yarn, creating a stable, cohesive double cloth with natural body and zero separation.
Weighing 255 g/sqm (7.53 oz/sqyd), it sits in the medium-to-heavyweight category, providing full opacity, good shape retention, and clean tailored drape. The fabric has been pre-washed to break in the 14s linen fibers, resulting in a softened handfeel directly off the bolt while minimizing residual shrinkage. Its dual-sided construction is suited for unlined garments and accessories where contrasting roll-up sleeves, folded collars, or turned-up cuffs can be shown.
