It is back. The winter fabric some of us hated to wear as much as longjohns and wool hats with tassels on the top. But it has returned as the ultimate in winter wear. The thick fabric keeps the nipping wind at bay and your legs warm because of the friction of the ribs rubbing together. Before, corduroy just was worn on the legs, but now it is a more universal fabric.
People wear corduroy shirts, skirts, shorts, dresses and overalls.
Fortunately, this fabric does not discriminate. Anybody and everybody can wear it. It is versatile, easy to take care of and fun to wear. The cotton is as warm as flannel and as comfortable to touch as velvet. And the best sweater can dress it up, or the rattiest sweatshirt can dress it down.
