Fabric: 100% Heavy weight plain cotton - Stonewashed
In Thai we call this material Pah Muang, it is the most common fabric used in traditional Northern Thai clothing due to its durability, soft feel, and most importantly, low cost. This fabric has been stonewashed to add additional colour texture.
We normally catalog this material as heavy cotton and internationally it is often classed as a tabby weave, we class it as heavy weight because out of the standard cottons we offer it is one of the thickest, but you may find it is lighter than other cottons or cotton blends. The label might not state cotton, the cottage industry here does not take care when labeling items. The natural stonewashing creates a rough effect which might include discolourations, faded areas, material piling, variations in tone between garment sections etc.
From our experience this material can shrink and the colours may run, especially on the first few washes. To reduce shrinkage and colour loss follow the suggested care instructions below.
