This collection brings together fabrics for making thobes, kanduras and dishdashas, plus collar interlining, snaps and buttons. It centres on high-density white broadcloth and typewriter cloth, and also includes cotton, polyester blends, TENCEL™ blends and wool-blend tropicals for winter.
Broadcloth is the choice when you want a smooth surface, a moderate sheen and crispness. Choose typewriter cloth for a paper-like crispness and a dry, smooth hand. The sheerness of white fabrics depends on weight and weave, so checking with a sample is recommended.
In customer reviews, buyers mention the fabrics' crispness, ease of handling and suppleness, and the pleasantly soft feel of the typewriter cloth. They also mention how thin and easy to open and close the snaps are, and how good the buttons look.

Cut-to-order quantities are possible, but for orders of 5 m or more, piece breaks may occur.
If there is a piece break in a cut order, we cut it a little longer.
Also, even for rolls, there may be piece breaks, so please place your order with some extra allowance (loss).
QI ordered the fabric by roll, but isn’t the quantity the same as what I ordered?
When you order fabric by roll, it is usually arranged as an estimated roll, so the quantity may be slightly above or below the quantity you ordered.
Therefore, if we need to change the quantity from what you ordered, we will notify you of the updated quantity by email each time.
If the quantity is greater, we will request additional payment for the difference; if the quantity is less, we will refund the difference within a few days after shipment is completed.
QI would like the test data for the fabric.

QThe color of the sample card swatch and the actual fabric I ordered differ. Can it be exchanged?
There may be slight differences depending on the fiber material, and fiber products can vary in color from lot to lot. For that reason, we cannot offer an exchange for slight variations, but if the color difference is significant, we will consult with the manufacturer and arrange an exchange or other appropriate response.
QI would like hang tags and woven labels for fabric with a trademark.
Regarding hang tags and woven labels, if the manufacturer selling them is different, the prices, terms, etc. will also differ. If you order the fabric, we can arrange it from as little as one piece. In principle, hang tags are often available, but woven labels may not be, so when ordering the fabric, please let us know the fabric product number and the number of hang tags/woven labels, etc.
