What is this Bamboo Touch gabardine

Gabardine is a classic fabric woven in twill, recognisable by the diagonal ribs you can clearly see running through this brown version. The Bamboo Touch finish gives the fabric a finely woven, exceptionally soft and fluid hand feel, as though you're running your fingers over a light bamboo twill instead of standard gabardine. Thanks to the stretch across the width, the fabric moves with your body, giving you a fit that doesn't pull or pinch. The medium weight and medium drape provide enough structure to hold its shape without feeling stiff. This combination of wearing comfort and polished appearance makes it a fabric you can use in almost any season.
