A rich mid red with no orange and no blue cast. That classic among strong colours, and on corduroy it reads especially warm.
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 Rot 638 is suitable for
- Children's dungarees, because red shows marks less than pale shades.
- Jackets and waistcoats, because at 320 g/m² this corduroy warms.
- Christmas sewing projects, because a rich red carries them.

Frequently asked questions
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.
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.
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.
Can I wear this all year round?
At 320 g/m² it is a sturdy cloth, so really one for autumn and winter. It suits transitional jackets and trousers well, while for summer clothing it runs too warm and too heavy.
