Reading Melton

Melton is a named cloth in the FabStitch catalog, filed in the AW Textures collection. The published composition is Wool; Wool blend. Construction is Heavily felted and cropped. Weight, where the reference gives it, is 500–800 GSM. Those three cells are the brief. A fibre name by itself does not tell you the hand, the cover, or the end use.

Documented uses for Melton are Coats. A use label means the sourcing reference mentions that application. It is not a guarantee that every colour, finish, or width will suit the garment. Read this page, then inquire on this URL rather than on the collection as a whole.

Season context published for Melton is AW 27/28. Seasonal labels describe the collection direction. They are not a promise that every colourway is available, and they are not a quality score. Character recorded here: Cut edges need no finishing. Those words describe the reference, not a lab result.

Other named fabrics in AW Textures include Boiled Wool, Double-Face Wool, Brushed Flannel, Mohair Blend, Alpaca Blend, Casentino Wool, Cotton Moleskin, Peach-Skin. Each has its own page. Do not copy a GSM, a finish, or a composition from one onto Melton. If a sibling looks close, open it and compare the published cells before you decide they are interchangeable.

A buyer shortlisting Melton should write composition (Wool; Wool blend), construction (Heavily felted and cropped), and weight (500–800 GSM) into the inquiry. If a cell is blank here, leave it blank. FabStitch does not estimate a missing measurement, a price, a certificate, or a supplier count on this page.

Melton is one product on the marketplace, not a category and not a filter. Search can group it with other AW Textures fabrics, but the cloth you inquire on should be this page. Filtered marketplace URLs are not the address to share.

When Melton is compared with another fabric, compare construction first, then the stated weight, then the documented uses. Overlapping fibre names across collections are common. The product name is the unit of comparison, not the family label.

Care, width, and finish only belong in the brief for Melton when this page states them. Otherwise keep the note to the published composition and the uses listed above, and confirm anything else with the fabric page rather than with a general guide.
