Petrol is a deep blue-green tone that gives a more saturated look in basic collections. The colour is often used for T-shirts, tops, leggings and dresses when you want a solid colour jersey with a nice drape and a calm, uniform colour appearance.

Bamboo jersey has a smooth surface and a soft touch, and the combination with lycra provides stretch that works for close-fitting styles without the garment feeling tight in wear. Many buyers ask what g/m² means for jersey. 240 g/m² is on the medium-heavy side and provides better coverage and improved shape stability than very lightweight qualities. This makes it relevant as bamboo spandex jersey and as sustainable jersey fabric for repeat programmes.

Fabric shops often choose petrol because it works as an alternative to classic navy and black while still being easy to style within a range. Smaller manufacturers use it for standard colours where reordering is important. The colour is supplied consistently from roll to roll, so you can maintain the same look in repeat deliveries.

Wash at 30 degrees and turn inside out. Avoid tumble drying. A test wash of a small swatch provides better control over any shrinkage in production.
