I’m trying to find some softshell fabric in grey with some kind of pattern / fleck / grain in it rather than just plain.

Or a similar material that is water resistant.

I’ve found some from Germany I was going to order but between ordering a sample and it arriving they sold out.

I’m struggling to find it in stock. Any ideas?

Cheers

Maybe ripstopbytheroll in the States or adventurexpert who are eastern Europe I think. In the UK you could try Pennine Outdoors

Another vote for Pennine in Bentham. They’ve been very helpful to friends buying fabric to make bits of caving kit.

Thanks, some great suggestions. My downfall I think is that I don't want plain, otherwise there are loads of options from those suppliers (none of which I had managed to find googling!)

This one looks promising https://www.aktivstoffe.de/melly-softshell.html
but 10 Euro shipping for a sample 🙁
