For commercial spaces and many residences, vinyl upholstery fabrics are an excellent choice with high traffic areas. Durable, and easy to clean; there are many benfits. Unlike leather, vinyl fabric is more resilient, affordable and versatile, and is also cruelty-free — a vegan-friendly, faux leather option.
Best Materials For All Seasons
Premium Brands
We carry a large in-store library of swatch books from premium vendors from Kravet, JF Fabrics, Fabricut, Stroheim, Thibaut, S. Harris, Maxwell, Anna Elisabeth, and Carole. We make it easy to explore textures, colors, and patterns in person. This helps ensure the fabric you choose fits both your style and the demands of your project.
Genuine Leather
A top choice for many reasons. Exceptional durability, timeless aesthetic and ease of cleaning as it resists spills, doesn’t trap allergens like fabric, and develops a unique patina, becoming softer and more comfortable with age, making it a long-lasting, luxurious investment for all settings.
Industrial Strength Vinyls
Fabrics
For comfort, breathability, and design variety, ideal for home living rooms and many commercial office areas. Unlike vinyl, fabric offers countless textures, patterns, and colors for unique home decor. Some of them even come with stain resistance coating straight from the factory.
Velvet & Chenille
Velvets and chenille fabrics are popular choices in custom upholstery for their rich texture, softness, and upscale look. Velvet offers a smooth, plush surface that adds depth and elegance to furniture, making it ideal for statement pieces like sofas, accent chairs, and headboards. Chenille has a slightly more casual feel with a soft, tufted texture, providing excellent comfort and durability for everyday seating. Both fabrics work beautifully in custom upholstery projects where comfort, visual impact, and a tailored finish are equally important.
Linens
Known for its relaxed elegance, soft texture, and breathable feel in custom drapery, linens are prized for their timeless look and ability to add warmth and movement to a space without feeling heavy or formal.
