Farmerrain fabrics comparisons

Post by Rukkafan »

Whats the difference in terms of feel in Farmerrain fabrics? I only have things made from biovinyl. Im mostly interested in atlas fabric, any recommendations on its behalf?

The Atlas fabric is discontinued, i never got to try it.

The fabric for their coats isn't that great, it's a not really that soft, and you can kinda see it up close in the pictures.
Although i can recommend their "shiny green" in the three button and retro coat series.

They actually just launched new atlas bibs! And also seems that they have plenty of atlas sailing jacket on stock as well

Not sure on why rubberboy is getting confused. They have had multiple fabrics they have called atlas in the past, last one was a light Shiny around 250g, I have some of this and its amazing wish they still did it.
They still call all thier own shiny fabric atlas but it's 400g now.

I find although it's a "lighter" fabric at 400 vs 460 of the biovinyl, it's fairly stiff and although you can't see in pictures it's almost slightly textured looking up close as it picks up a bit of the texture from the backing.
It looks great out, especially when the sun is out but personally due to its stiffness its not gear that gets played with at home. I have some in blue and black (the black isn't that glossy either), I think I'll be sticking to the biovinyl in future but others might have more preferable reviews of it.
