The Fishtail M-1951 i liked it a lot but the price is scary. So was wondering if their cotton sateen is so superior from other brands i have seen that sell for cheaper for example Bronson or even Buzz Rickson ( but theirs are cotton Satin...which is different a bit and less strong than sateen from what i have read)Hi Serghei
While I’m definitely not an expert on the properties of cotton sateen, I have owned a few items made from CS, so I’ll pass on what little I know about it. First off CS is a type of “polished cotton’ which is a more shiny and smoother cotton that has a shiny look to it. During the Viet Nam war some US Army Fatigues were made from CS and were called “Sateens”. Today many bed linen companies make CS sheets and pillow cases as it’s smooth and silky feel is nicer to sleep on .
CS is definitely NOT waterproof.
What kind of jacket were you thinking of purchasing ?
