Fabric and Fit
Maple is designed for heavyweight coating fabrics such as Melton wool, cashmere, boucle, or boiled wool. Choose fabrics with structure and body to hold the coat’s tailored shape, highlight the oversized collar, and showcase details like the double-breasted front and sleeve tabs.
A high-quality, medium- to heavyweight lining fabric like silk, rayon, or acetate will ensure smooth finishing and ease of wear.
