A striking heavyweight wool blend coating fabric in a deep lustrous navy. Its distinctive brushed surface catches and reflects the light, creating beautiful tonal variations that shift from an almost-black navy to brighter silvery blue highlights depending on the direction of the fabric and the lighting.

Made with 80% wool and weighing a substantial 485 gsm, this fabric has the weight, warmth and body required for cold-weather outerwear. Its dense construction provides excellent structure while still forming elegant folds and curves, making it particularly well suited to statement coats and sophisticated tailored garments.

What makes this coating especially distinctive is its lustrous directional surface. The brushed fibres interact with the light to create a rich, dimensional appearance rather than a completely flat solid colour. This effect gives the deep navy an elevated look and allows the texture of the fabric to become part of the finished garment's design.

With a generous 142 cm width and substantial 485 gsm weight, this wool blend is an excellent choice for structured winter coats, long coats, tailored jackets and other outerwear where warmth and visual impact are equally important.

Sewing Tip: This fabric has a directional surface that reflects light differently depending on the orientation of the brushed fibres. Cut all pattern pieces in the same direction to maintain a consistent colour and sheen across the finished garment. At 485 gsm, choose patterns designed for heavyweight coating fabrics and grade or trim bulky seam allowances where necessary. A lining is recommended for coats and jackets for a polished finish and comfortable layering.

Due to the directional surface of this fabric, its colour and sheen can appear different depending on the lighting and viewing angle. Due to the different color variations of each monitor and mobile device, we cannot guarantee the color will exactly match what you see online.
