In March 18 when I ordered my first pair of these I was delighted with the fabric and overall quality of them. I decided to order the same again but had to wait some time for new stock. Not a problem with that. However when they arrived they are not only a slightly different material (a tighter weave) but the backing is not as thick and soft as the first pair. Also the latest pair is slightly paler in colour. As I had to make shorter both pairs I still have the two remainder fabrics to compare. Not as nice a material.
