A deep petrol between blue and green that tips one way or the other depending on light. On pile it looks especially rich, because those ribs cast shadows.
This pile is finely ribbed, soft to touch without turning velvety. At 320 g/m² your cloth is sturdy enough for trousers or jackets, while 5 % elastane lets it give crosswise, so it sits comfortably. Wash at 30 degrees, keep it out of your tumble dryer — either would attack that pile. Skip your iron as well; steam from a distance is enough.
One point decides how corduroy turns out: lay every piece facing the same nap direction when you cut. Otherwise two trouser legs read as different shades later, although they came from one length.
What Swafing Cord Nicky Juna HW26/27 Petrol 750 is suitable for
- Trousers for autumn and winter, because 320 g/m² brings substance.
- Transitional jackets, because petrol sits well beside camel and natural white.
- Skirts with body, because this firm corduroy holds its shape.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need to watch the nap when cutting?
Yes, and with corduroy that is the main rule. Run your hand across it: one way feels smooth, the other rough. Lay every pattern piece facing the same way, or they will look different shades later.
Why should I keep the iron off this corduroy?
An iron crushes the pile flat, and those patches stay shiny for good. Use steam from a distance instead, or hang your garment in a damp bathroom. If you must press, work from the back over a towel.
Does this corduroy stretch?
Yes, 5 % elastane lets it give crosswise. That makes trousers comfortable and forgives sitting down, but it also means: cut precisely, never stretch while sewing, or your seams will ripple.
How much do I need for a pair of trousers?
For adult trousers, reckon roughly twice your leg length plus seam allowances; at 155 cm wide your leg pieces usually fit side by side. Remember that nap forces every piece to face one way.
