What is the reason for separately lining the inside of shorts made with jacquard fabric with cotton?
After seeing in the product description of jacquard shorts that a cotton lining was included, one may wonder about the purpose of adding a separate lining.
Cotton was lined on the inside so that the rough texture created when jacquard fabric, with its pronounced surface texture, directly touches the skin is reduced and it can be worn comfortably[1].
Jacquard is a weaving method that expresses three-dimensional patterns and textures through the interlacing of threads. While the texture on the outer surface of the fabric comes vividly to life, the unevenness on the inside caused by multiple intersecting threads can feel rough against bare skin.
AMOMENTO's JACQUARD TWO TUCK WIDE SHORTS uses a cotton lining to compensate for these material characteristics when wearing the garment[2]. Cotton is a natural fiber that feels soft and causes little skin irritation. It is a construction that addresses this weakness so that the outer fabric's inherent three-dimensional texture is fully preserved, while the inside that touches the legs is wrapped pleasantly and softly.
Whether the lining is applied throughout the entire inside of the shorts or only to a portion has not yet been confirmed.
