I've noticed a few threads being posted about reproduction versions of the 1969 Comfortweave and Houndstooth material being used in today's upholstery reproductions. The original Comfortweave we all know was just as it states in the name, woven. Unfortunately none of today's vinyl manufacturing companies are reproducing the Comfortweave as it was originally made by Chevy.
This was taken from another forum ^^ |

That picture in post 142 was not vinyl look like some kind of thread. I do not think there is any way to weave vinyl

We are having SMS make covers for the 1973 RS LT Z28... light neutral comfortweave - $1300 for front and rear seat covers made from NOS comfortweave (received samples and have approved already) You have to send one complete front cover, and the upper and lower rear covers as patterns.

That's an impressive material. Chevy must have charged a premium for that option.
Just curious how long SMS quoted you on the turnaround. They've been known to take as much as 2 years to finish an order. |

I got samples of the comfortweave to approve first, (real and woven) now they are sending samples of the vinyl and the beading/welting for approval before I agree to let them do the seats. That's a good question as I am not waiting 2 years... I have someone who can sew covers VERY WELL so I can get it done. The actual fabric is 54" wide and is $170 per running yard. SMS says 3 yards. We are buying an additional 3 yards to keep with the car in-case something happens.
