Pocketing and lining fabrics should be stable, lightweight and appropriate to the required opacity, ventilation and seam construction.
Define whether the fabric is for pocketing, garment lining or bag lining.
Specify target weight, width, openness and colour.
Confirm any tear, abrasion, shrinkage or colour-fastness requirements.
Tricot is usually the first construction to review where low weight, stability and a clean lining surface are priorities.
Ranking is deterministic and uses only current catalogue data: exact end-use tags, construction, stretch, GSM fit, family and listed properties. It is a sourcing shortlist, not a claim that one fabric is universally best.
Send the garment, GSM, width, stretch, finish, volume and testing requirements.
