Why does corduroy smell

2022.01.12 23:58




















Tumble dry on extra low for just a bit then hang them to dry. Or, you could hang them to dry then tumble for ten minutes on extra-low in the dryer to fluff the nap of the corduroy and make it soft. Corduroy has a tendency to shrink in the legs if you dry them in too much heat. When you remove corduroy from the dryer, shake it out and hang. If you want to take an iron to them, be sure to iron them inside out.


You can remove any lint with a lint brush in the same direction as the nap. Follow us on Facebook for occational tips and tricks for all your wardrobe and household needs.

So you have 2 potentially conflicting issues in 1 garment: a perspiration, being a water-based stain, typically requires a water-based cleaning solution which may distort the nap of the fibers and result in the fibers appearing to be "uneven" or "blotchy" and b most corduroy garments are or should be "dry clean only" and so requires a dry cleaning solution.


I know that there are folks who might argue that they wash their "dry clean only" corduroy garments all the time and that they come out "fine". It does not emit pungent fumes, or expose worrying expanses of flesh. The problem for the rail company, apparently, is corduroy's propensity for fading, particularly around the knees.


This is in part due to the way the cloth is manufactured. It is made of twisted fibres which, when woven, lie parallel to one another to form the distinctive pattern.


The width of the cord is known as as the "wale"; the size of the wale can be anything from very chunky to very fine. Modern corduroy, however, is commonly made of tufted cords, with a bare, untufted channel running between the tufts.


Its soft tuftiness leaves corduroy, unlike flannel or cotton, open to erosion.
