About this fabric
Officer Choice in detail
Officer Choice is a poly-viscose suiting at 210 to 230 GSM on a 147 cm (58 inch) width, with a plain, structured weave and a wash-fast, wrinkle-resistant finish. It is held in khaki, navy and olive, with custom shades woven to order, and it is the quality we recommend for police, security and other force uniforms that are worn through long shifts and laundered often.
The two things a force buyer usually needs proven are shade consistency across shirt and trouser, and durability under repeated washing. The police khaki case study shows how one khaki is held across both garments, and how we test our fabric sets out the checks behind the wash-fast claim. Care instructions for issued garments are in our uniform fabric care guide.
