Its UPF 50+ protection and antibacterial properties make it particularly well suited to swimwear and outdoor garments.

What is deadstock fabric? Deadstock fabric is unused material remaining from a brand's production or previous collection. Once this fabric is sold out, we may not be able to restock it, making it a limited-quantity find.

Care Instructions: Machine wash in cold water. Do not bleach. Hang to dry.

We recommend pre-washing your fabric using the same method you intend to use for the finished garment.

Avery E. ★★★★★

I was a bit worried the stretch might be too loose, but the 20% spandex gives it just the right amount of give for sewing boardshorts. The tropical monkey print is fun without being overwhelming, and the 154 cm width left me plenty of fabric to work with.

Nicholas ★★★★★

The stretch is just right for making swim trunks — not too loose, not too tight. The print is bold and fun, exactly what I wanted. Great deadstock find.

Scarlett ★★★★★

I ordered this fabric for a custom rash guard and was pleasantly surprised by how soft the stretch woven feels against the skin. The 20% spandex gives it just the right amount of give without losing shape.
