8.5oz Lyocell Denim Fabric

Buyer Overview

HW1210 is an 8.5oz 100% lyocell denim for wide-leg trousers and soft fashion shapes that need fluid drape rather than rigid architecture. The catalog verifies a 170 cm width, deep-blue shade, 3/1 right-hand twill and slub structure. Lyocell’s movement is the key design value here, but this record does not claim TENCEL™ branding; any branded-fiber requirement must be supported separately.

At approximately 288.2 GSM, the cloth has enough presence for relaxed pants while remaining more fluid than comparable rigid cotton constructions. The 170 cm width is about 66.9 inches and can help place broad legs efficiently. Marker calculations should still use the measured usable width and account for the fabric’s tendency to move during spreading.

Technical Specifications and Order Controls

Marker, Cutting and Sewing Guidance

Allow rolls to relax on a clean surface, use low lay tension and prevent plies from creeping. Wide-leg fronts, bias details and long panels should be cut with consistent grain orientation. Select a needle and stitch balance that minimize puckering, and support only the garment zones that need stability so the lyocell drape is not lost.

Washing and Garment Development

Lyocell-rich fabric requires crease management. Avoid overloading machines, harsh extraction and long periods in a wet folded state, all of which can produce crease streaks or rope marks. Use gentle chemistry, controlled liquor movement and prompt opening after washing. Press at the lowest effective temperature and verify shine or flattening on a hidden sample. Shrinkage must be measured on the approved recipe.

Buyer FAQ

Is HW1210 suitable for a sharply structured jacket?

Its main advantage is fluid movement, so it better serves wide legs, relaxed garments and soft layers. Request a free swatch card and sample yardage to assess drape before pattern work.

Sampling note: Stock, lot, shade and technical performance can change. Request a free swatch card, then confirm sample yardage and current test data before bulk production.
