A beautifully textured pure cotton hopsack weave, offering a distinctive basket-like structure that is both visually interesting and functionally strong. At 260 GSM, this is a medium-to-substantial-weight cloth with body, durability, and a refined artisanal presence.

The hopsack construction creates a subtle, open yet stable grid that gives the fabric depth, breathability, and resilience while maintaining a clean, tailored look. The natural cotton handfeel keeps it comfortable, breathable, and versatile across seasons.

This is a designer-friendly, tailoring-grade cotton, ideal for makers who appreciate texture, structure, and timeless woven craftsmanship.

How the Fabric is Made

Woven from 100 percent cotton yarn

Constructed in a classic hopsack (basket) weave, where pairs of warp and weft yarns interlace to form a textured grid

The texture is woven into the fabric, not printed or embossed

Finished lightly to preserve breathability and a natural cotton feel

Minor textural variation is inherent to hopsack weaves and part of its character
