Oxford Chambray's fiber content?

• A. 50% cotton / 50% polyester
• B. 100% linen
• C. 60% cotton / 40% polyester
• D. 100% cotton

Answer: (D)

Oxford chambray is a fabric crafted from cotton fibers, valued for its soft, breathable hand and comfortable drape. The Oxford weave gives it durability and a slightly crisp feel, while chambray’s plain weave with a colored warp contributes a smooth appearance. This combination is most commonly produced in 100% cotton, which preserves breathability, dye absorption, and the characteristic soft finish desirable for shirts. Blends with polyester would alter the hand and breathability, and using linen would create a noticeably different texture and drape, not what this fabric is typically known for. So the fiber content is 100% cotton.
