Does anyone know where I could get some top quality Corduroy fabric in wide wale, very heavy, in unusual colors?

Brisbane Moss is the premiere maker of cords and moleskins in the UK. They used to have a store where they sold closeouts. Otherwise they sell to the trade only. If there were enough interest from the LL members, I could inquire about making a group purchase or some facility for the members.

The 3101X and GS20 are the heaviest weight 8 wale cord they are showing on the site. I am sure they have heavier.

You could buy from the distributors but they normally only take into stock the standard colors: beige, whiskey, olive etc I don't think any of them carry the unusual colors.

I saw a swatch card from W Bill that had a nice variety of colors (beyond the standard earth tones) and weights.
