Description
Softshell is not ironed and needs no edge finishing — it does not fray. The web measures 145 cm across; its weight comes to 310 g/m². Its composition reads 100 % polyester.
Grey sits in the achromatic range and gives every colour beside it the right of way. A vehicle print tells a story and turns even a plain shirt into a favourite. Pins leave holes in coated goods that stay. Clips on the seam allowance solve it. Fabric by the metre is cut in one piece; your ordered length arrives as a single cut.
What Softshell Druck Baufahrzeuge mit Fleeceabseite is suitable for
- between-season and rain jackets
- bags and rucksacks
- gilets and overalls

Frequently asked questions
Can I pin it?
Only in the seam allowance. Coated goods keep every hole, and a seam cannot be unpicked without traces. Clips are the better choice, since they pierce nothing.
The fabric sticks to the presser foot — what helps?
A Teflon foot or a walking foot. Alternatively a strip of tissue paper between foot and fabric, torn away after the seam. A sheet of baking paper under the fabric also helps when no special foot is at hand.
How do I reinforce the seam?
On bags with a flat-felled seam or a second row of topstitching. That not only holds better, it also makes the seam flatter — and flatness is half the battle on thick fabrics.
What do I do with offcuts?
Wet bags, bag bases, rain covers and sit mats. Coated offcuts are too valuable to discard, because they do exactly what ordinary cotton cannot. A piece the size of a postcard already covers a bag base.
