  • Quality

    First quality or second quality. Our second quality fabrics are "Merchantable Seconds" that did not pass Polartec standards for first quality fabric, but are still usable for many products. There are many reasons that a fabric could be coded as second quality. For example; off shade, shearing (loft too high or low), banding (horizontal lines), poor/excessive stretch. We are not told what the issue could be. If you want to ensure no specific flaws, you can email customerservice@milldirecttextiles.com and request an Inspection. The cost of Inspection is $2.00/yard with a 10 yard minimum. We will report back detailing any noticeable flaws including location and images. If you are making large items, such as blankets, use of second quality is not recommended. If you are mentioning the name “Polartec” in the description of your product, you may not use Second Quality for any reason. Please note that splices are a normal occurrence and are not counted as flaws.

    Aged rolls are first quality rolls that have over-stayed their welcome in our warehouse and have been deeply discounted to make space for new inventory.

  • DWR

    A water repellent finish that is added to the fabric for increased resistance to snow and rain.

  • Recycled

    Fabric is created using recycled fibers.

    A slight flecking of color

    Second quality and Aged fabrics (Please see Quality definition) are sold “as is,” meaning they are not eligible for return due to defect. Inspection services are available, see Quality definition for more information.

    First quality fabrics are expected to fall within specification, determined by Polartec®. If you are unhappy with the quality, please contact us. We will help facilitate the next steps including filing a claim with Polartec. During the wait for a claim determination, we will offer replacement fabric if available. The cost of the replacement will be based on the determination of the Polartec Claim. In the event the Claim was found in defect, the customer will not be responsible for the replacement fabric or freight. If no replacement fabric was sent, a credit will be issued including freight from the original order. If the Claim was found within Polartec Specs, the customer will be responsible for payment of the replacement fabric order, including freight. The customer may request a Spec sheet for the style in question to help decide whether to officially file a Claim. All determinations made by Polartec are final.
