The twins of the leather jacket, the cloth jacket! ?

Hello.

The Tokai region has unstable weather as the seasons change.

Sometimes when the weather is sunny, I really miss my bike.

This may seem sudden, but do you all wear leather jackets?

This time I will tell you a short story about leather jackets.

First, ``There are twin cloth jackets inside the leather jacket.''

Well, it's not Tonchi, have you noticed?

Yes, I'm talking about the lining.

Made to match the outer leather, it looks exactly like two melons.

It is indispensable for improving the comfort and durability of leather jackets.

Typical linings are twill and satin, but what is twill? What is satin?

what?

Originally, most fabrics are made by weaving threads, except for non-woven fabrics and special fabrics.

Simply put, the difference lies in the way they are woven.

The method of weaving thread is called “Mihara weaving”.

There are three basic weaves: plain weave, twill weave, and satin weave.

When looking at the warp threads, the weft threads are

The characteristics change depending on how many lines are crossed. *The same number of wefts and viewpoints will intersect.

・Plain weave is a structure in which the warp and weft threads alternately intersect.

It is characterized by its strong fabric, and comes in various types such as canvas and canvas.

Although it is strong, it is stiff and is not often used as a lining.

It is often used for pocket bags, vests, shoe uppers, bags, etc.

- Twill weave is a weave in which two or three weft threads are crossed over one warp thread.

Although it is less strong than plain weave, it is stretchy and wrinkle-resistant.

And twill belongs to twill.

In fact, denim is also a twill weave. Since the warp is indigo and the weft is woven,

There is a difference in the exposure of the warp and weft threads on the front and back sides, and the fabric color also differs on the front and back sides.

- Satin weave is a fabric in which four or more weft threads intersect with one warp thread.

Because there are fewer intersections, the twill is less noticeable, giving it a glossy finish, and is soft to the touch.

On the other hand, the threads tend to slip or float and are easily damaged.

The satin is a 1:4 satin weave.

By the way, the silk is a 1:7 satin weave, so it feels very soft to the touch.

There are 80,000 types of fabrics, depending on the combination of thread materials and thickness.

When making a leather jacket from among the many fabrics available, by choosing a lining that has a good balance with the outer leather,

Products that have been carefully thought out so that they can be used for a long time are lined up in stores.

We will also give you the same advice when you inquire about orders or repairs.
