A beautiful quality vertical stretch twill, opaque, medium-weight with a micro-twill texture, and a more firm, cottony drape. Don't let the "nylon" content fool you, this is more like a cotton twill with a matte finish and a sporty look. It's the perfect weight for stretch pants, a casual tailored jacket, trench coat, travel vest, and other casual wardrobe staples! It has about 30% LENGTHwise stretch, so you have to cut your garment across the grain. The color is black. Machine wash low, tumble dry low.
