How to Choose Functional Products

As functional apparel materials, we handle fabrics as the main focus, along with tape, buttons, linings, interlinings, zippers, and more. You can choose fabrics and auxiliary materials with antiviral, breathable, and waterproof properties, mainly in polyester, as well as cotton, polyurethane, nylon, and others.

Plain weave can be selected from lightweight to heavyweight depending on the yarn, density, and finish, and twill has diagonal ribs on the surface. If stretch is needed, a polyurethane blend is suitable; if lightness, strength, or abrasion resistance is important, nylon is also a good reference. Customer reviews mention lightness, coolness, a pleasant feel against the skin, resistance to fraying at cut edges, and ease of shaping.

This introduction was written by AI based on product data, reviews and the ApparelX Wiki.

アトリエミーマMay 13, 2023
light!
I used it for the lining of a 110cm children's parka.
I was a little worried about the weight of the outer material, so I hesitated about the inner lining, but the weight of the textile used was 30g.
The best lining for children.
I can't feel the functionality and durability yet, but I really like it, including the cost performance.

Difference from broadcloth
CLEANSE Burberry is gentle on the skin when used as a mask.
The advantage of broadcloth textile is that it dries quickly and does not wrinkle, so people with sensitive skin may experience irritation if worn for a long period of time.

Easy-to-use functional lining
I bought this to use as a lining for masks.
I like that the cut edges don't fray easily.
There are many colors available, so we recommend ordering a ledger sample.

Maker's PickAug 26, 2026
MADE IN JAPAN from thread twisting to finishing
This is a high-quality material made with a commitment to MADE IN JAPAN, from yarn twisting through finishing.
In addition to outstanding stretch that does not restrict everyday movement, it is double-brushed on both sides to create a smooth, soft, and pleasantly supple feel.
We would also appreciate your consideration of the brushed-back version〈46157〉and the solid double-brushed version〈46116〉.

Frequently asked questions

QCan I place an order for fabric without any joins?
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 the roll, the exact length of a full roll may vary, so the delivered quantity may be slightly more or less than the quantity you ordered.
If the quantity changes from your order, we will notify you of the quantity by email each time.
If the quantity is greater, we will ask you to pay the difference. If it is less, credit card payments are charged the lower amount (your card is charged when your order ships). If you have already paid by bank transfer, or used a payment method that is charged when you place the order, such as Alipay, we will refund the difference within a few days after shipping.
QI would like the test data for the fabric.
support page, or please include it in the remarks field when placing your order. We will check with the manufacturer.
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.
