Sherpa & Shire are remarkably durable and cleanable upholstery fabrics. Constructed exclusively with Marquésa® Lana yarns, which gives them inherent strength, these fabrics have set an unsurpassed standard for performance and abrasion ratings and are nearly impervious to damage.
The integrity of fiber and finish utilized in creating Marquésa® Lana gives this fabric extraordinary wearability and distinctive stain resistant properties. Color that goes all the way through to the fibers ensures that color won’t wear off. With proper maintenance, Sherpa+Shire fabrics will retain their look for years with no fear of tears, yarn breaks, pilling or snagging under normal conditions.
