At first touch
A prompt to investigate, not a judgment in itself.
Mixed, unusual or incompletely specified materials require garment-specific reading.
What it can do well
- May combine properties thoughtfully
- Can include innovative or traditional specialist cloth
- Useful when the construction is explained clearly
What deserves a closer look
- Composition absent from the official listing
- Brand names used instead of fiber content
- Novelty language without performance evidence
Living with it
- Follow the most delicate component
- Ask the maker when composition is unclear
- Record successful care in your Cabinet notes
