What is this fabric?
Polyester is a durable synthetic fibre that creases little. Its type depends on how the yarn is spun and woven, so feel, sheen and durability change from one type to another.

How to judge quality by eye and touch
- The finer the yarn, the softer the feel.
- An even weave (warp and weft crossing equally) gives medium softness, as in spun-spun, filament-filament and spun-filament.
- Pull the fabric with both hands: a good weave holds together and its threads do not part.
- Ramada fabrics keep their colour and last through repeated washing and ironing.
- If a manufacturing defect shows in the fabric before it is tailored, you may exchange it or return it.
Care and ironing
- Wash in water below 30°C, without too much detergent and without any bleach.
- Rinse well to remove detergent residue.
- Do not tumble-dry, so that no pilling forms; dry in the shade.
- Iron at no more than 110°C.

Questions about this fabric
Does it crease or wrinkle?
Only a little — polyester creases less. The higher the cotton share in a fabric, the more it creases.
Does the fabric shrink after washing?
No. Shrinkage happens only in cotton, linen, ramie, rayon and fabrics with a high cotton content.
How much fabric do I need for a Saudi thobe?
It depends on the fabric width: 58 inches needs 3.25 m (3.57 yd); 44, 42 or 38 inches needs 4.5 m (5 yd).
