The deep bordeaux melange is uniform from roll to roll — no visible shade shifts at transitions. The colour works across seasons: it reads as a dark, warm tone in autumn-winter collections and can be kept in timeless basic lines year-round. Used for rib trims and necklines on sweatshirts and pullovers, sleeve endings on jackets and cardigans, cuffs on bodysuits and casualwear, and as a designed contrast rib trim on grey, black and navy blue jersey fabric bases.

Bordeaux Melange is an alternative to black and navy for customers who want colour in the finish without moving into light or high-visibility shades. The melange structure softens the colour and gives a woven, textured look rather than a flat, solid bordeaux. Dimensional stability is high — the ribbing recovers to its stretch position after washing and wear, and the tubular construction requires no additional edge seam.

Apparel manufacturers, womenswear brands and fabric shops order Bordeaux Melange for collections with a designed and balanced colour strategy. The Oeko-Tex 100 certification supports documentation requirements from European retail customers with chemical limit values. In-stock item — ships the same business day when ordered before 12:00 from Ikast.

Wash at 30°C, inside out. Avoid tumble drying — bordeaux melange retains colour depth best with line drying. Iron inside out at medium heat.

Combine with solid colour jersey in a matching or contrasting colour — or use as rib trim for pullovers from the rib range.
