What is herringbone fabric?
Herringbone is a distinctive V-shaped weaving pattern created by alternating the direction of a twill weave. It is a traditional pattern frequently used for wool tailoring and outerwear.
Does this fabric have a backing?
Yes. A stabilizing backing has been applied to the reverse of the fabric, adding body and helping the fabric maintain its structure. The fibre composition of the backing is unknown.

For coats and jackets, adding a lining is recommended. A lining will conceal the backing and interior construction while creating a more comfortable and polished finish.
