Microfibre velvet, 1.0 mm
Fine napped surface, 1.0 mm, soft with a matte suede look; brushes up if the pile is rubbed the wrong way.
| Best for | Premium cosmetic bags, jewellery and travel pouches, and linings where a suede feel is wanted without leather. |
|---|---|
| Limits | The nap direction is visible under raking light, so all panels of one bag are cut in the same direction. Debossing on microfibre flattens the pile and reads shallower than on PU. |
A suede look without the hide: even surface, consistent colour across a run, and no natural marks to explain to a buyer.
