Let's talk about Fabrics: Corduroy

Corduroy fabric

In the realm of fine fabrics selected by Mason's, corduroy, also known as corduroy velvet, stands out for its durability and timeless style. This fabric, characterized by its soft and well-defined vertical ribs, is cherished for its uniqueness and versatility. Not only is it a resilient and long-lasting fabric, but it also provides unparalleled comfort, making it ideal for Mason's collections, which always strive to blend style with practicality.

The History and Evolution of Corduroy

Corduroy is a thick cotton fabric with raised ribs. Originating in ancient Egypt, this fabric began being woven in England in the 15th century, becoming popular in the 19th century in Manchester, where it was used for industrial clothing. Over the centuries, it has evolved into a key element of British country apparel and subsequently spread globally, especially in the 1970s.

Physically, corduroy is a robust and durable fabric with a surface made up of rounded ribs formed by cut yarn. This fabric is made from major textile fibers and features a simple or twill weave on the back. Its unique structure, derived from fustian fabric, makes it akin to a striped form of velvet.

Mason's, with its innovative and contemporary vision, has successfully reinterpreted corduroy velvet in creations ranging from casual to more formal garments, always keeping an eye on comfort and practicality.
