HOPSACKSeat patternVS FRESCO

In the warm spring or early autumn of China, when wearing a suit, it may be ordinary grams and fine imitation wool, or it is too hot. At this time, what material should we choose? In summer, flax and cotton are naturally the first choice. Remember, I’m talking about China. I really hate those who come to China with the experience of a country with a high temperature of 25 degrees in summer. In the warm spring and early autumn, of course, we still return to the material of wool, but different weaving methods can also achieve some relatively cool fabrics.

FRESCO

Fresco is the Englishisation of Italian, which originally means Fresh, but it is very fresh. It is also a trademark, and the holder is J&J Minnis, a Huddersfield fabric factory. Technically, it is to use high-woven yarn and then weave it into a relatively developed structure. If you don’t worry about these technologies, the fabric is very airy, and then it’s not easy to wrinkle. Because this yarn is very hard, it seems that the fabric is not very delicate. In addition to being cool, the biggest advantage of this fabric is that it will naturally eliminate wrinkles after hanging for a few hours.

Seat pattern

The mat pattern, like Fresco, is also an open weaving method. But relatively speaking, this yarn is softer and lighter. Its anti-wrinkle is better than linen, but not as good as Fresco. The biggest problem with this fabric is that it is not wear-resistant, so if it is used to make trousers, it may soon be worn out.

Looking closely, the fabric is like a very thin sieve.

How to choose?

If you want a suit instead of a suit top, choose Fresco.

As mentioned above, the mat pattern is not wear-resistant. If you want trousers, choose Fresco.

If it’s Danxi, the mat pattern is good.

This fabric is softer, and in terms of texture, it is more obvious and beautiful than Fresco.

Just talk about which one is cool and choose Fresco.

The coolness of Fresco is that its yarn is harder, so after this open knitting, the void in the middle of the fabric is larger, so it is more ventilated and more insulated.

One attention point

Both fabrics are relatively transparent, so if you choose this fabric while choosing a lining-free structure for coolness, it is easy to see the colour of the clothes or trousers inside. The suggestion is that the colour inside is relatively close to the colour outside.
