Corduroy
Corduroy is a textile with a distinctively raised "cord" or wale texture. Modern corduroy is most commonly composed of tufted cords, sometimes exhibiting a channel (bare to the base fabric) between them. Both velvet and corduroy derive from fustian fabric. Corduroy looks as if it is made from multiple cords laid parallel to each other. Etymology The word ''corduroy'' is from ''cord'' and ''duroy'', a coarse woollen cloth made in England in the 18th century. Although the origin of ''duroy'' is not attested and although its likely meaning is ''du roi'' (''of the King''), it does not follow that the full phrase ''corde du roi'' derives from ''the cord of the King''. This is probably a false etymology. Variations Corduroy is made by weaving extra sets of fibre into the base fabric to form vertical ridges called ''wales''. The wales are built so that clear lines can be seen when they are cut into pile. Corduroy is considered a durable cloth, and is found in the construction of tr ...
