A&S 2025AW – Natural Shield Cotton Chambray Hard

Natural shield cotton chambray hard is an exceptional fabric crafted from 100% Egyptian GIZA cotton, spun into fine three-ply yarns and woven at ultra-high density. It possesses a simple yet remarkable property: when the fibers absorb water, they expand, closing the gaps in the weave and preventing water from passing through. This unique characteristic allows the fabric, while remaining pure cotton, to maintain semi-permanent water-resistant performance.

The specification builds on an over a century-old tradition of water-resistant fabrics. To achieve maximum density, the yarns are deliberately left unstarched. Colorfast dyes ensure that the fabric retains its rich, vibrant hue over time. Although the high-density weave is naturally susceptible to abrasion and signs of wear, these subtle changes develop into a distinctive vintage character that can be appreciated as the fabric ages.

In addition to its water-resistance, the fabric offers excellent breathability and possesses practical properties such as flame resistance, heat resistance, and chemical resistance. Combining everyday functionality with enduring durability, it is a material designed for long-term use and lasting enjoyment.
