What is the difference between denim and canvas? Denim And Canvas When you think of these two fabrics, you will think of Denim and canvas bags. We all come into contact with these two fabrics regularly, but do you understand the differences?

Firstly, in terms of material, the canvas is thick cotton or linen fabric The name originally comes from the fact that its fabric is commonly used to make sails. Canvas is generally plain, with a small amount of twill, and uses multiple strands of warp and weft yarn. There are two main types of canvas available on the market: coarse and fine. Denim is a type of warp twill and is a colored fabric made up of a higher number of unique, i.e., thicker, cotton threads.

Secondly, from the fabric characteristics, canvas fabrics are generally cotton, made of thicker textiles, canvas bags have double-well double weft, single well double weft, double well single weft, and other textile methods. The plain weave tissue is usually used. Denim has the characteristics of a cotton fabric that is moisture absorbent and breathable, and comfortable to wear. At the same time, because Denim is woven with thicker yarns, it is rougher and more wear-resistant. Denim can be washed, has no special requirements in washing, and has a longer service life, which most people have loved.
