Mind The MAKER Trevor Taslon High Tech Nylon Fabric - Khaki

Taslon refers to a specific type of nylon fabric constructed with a special weave that creates a very tight, durable, and high-tech material. It's known for its strength, resistance to wear, and lightweight feel.

It has a water-repellent finish and blocks wind, making it suitable for light rain protection, such as for jackets or showerproof trousers. It is not fully waterproof for heavy downpours.

It is recommended to wash the fabric at 30 degrees Celsius. Avoid using fabric softeners or high heat, as these can damage the fabric's properties, especially its water repellency.

It's ideal for durable outerwear like trousers and jackets, as well as accessories such as tote bags, pouches, and backpacks. It also has appeal for cosplay and autumn/winter fashion.

The fabric is 145cm wide and is sold cut per metre. Its weight is 120 gsm (grams per square metre).

Yes, its lightweight, breathable, and anti-static properties make it a comfortable choice for linings in garments or bags.

Taslon fabric is resistant to shrinking due to its synthetic nylon fiber composition and tight weave.

Ensure you are washing at 30 degrees and have avoided harsh detergents or high-spin cycles. Gentle tumble drying on low heat or air drying can help restore suppleness.

Use a sharp pair of fabric shears or a rotary cutter. A fine-tooth rotary blade can also help minimize fraying on tightly woven synthetic fabrics.

Ensure you are using a sharp needle appropriate for synthetic fabrics (e.g., a universal or microtex needle) and that your tension is correctly set.

Wash the fabric according to care instructions. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can clog the fabric's pores and reduce water resistance. Consider re-applying a fabric-specific water repellent treatment if necessary.
