Each line of a Quality card carries one tag. The tag tells you how sure we are.

FACT: Checked against a published source. The link shows who said it and when.
Target: What we're asking our mill for. It isn't confirmed until we test the fabric, so we show a range, not one exact number.
We'll test: Something we'll measure ourselves, such as shrinkage or colour after washing. We'll publish the results and photos, whatever they show.

Testing plan

What we intend to test on this concept, and the pass criteria. A result is only marked Verified once we have the evidence.

Shrinkage after washing
Planned
Length and width change after five home washes.
Colourfastness
Planned
Colour change after repeated washing and exposure to light.
Pilling resistance
Planned
Surface pilling on the twill weave after repeated wash-and-wear cycles.

Why this fabric

We chose a cotton twill weave for this pant because its diagonal rib gives a smooth, slightly firm cloth more structure and drape than a plain weave, in the mid weight range we're targeting for a relaxed, everyday pant.

On your skin

This is a research-stage concept: we expect the twill to feel smooth against skin and to ease and soften with wear, rather than a tested result.

Where the difference shows

The twill's diagonal weave and the relaxed, tailored leg are meant to read as more considered than a plain cotton pant, while the fabric stays simple: 100% cotton.
