Create a fabric

Where to find it

Customizer → Fabrics → Add fabric.

Steps

1. Click Add fabric.
2. Enter a Name (shown to customers) and a Slug (auto-filled from the name; letters, numbers, - and _; unique in your account). The slug appears in print files and tech packs.
3. Click Create and open the fabric. On the Overview tab:
   • Price — per-unit surcharge added when the customer selects this fabric. 0 = included.
   • Status — disabled fabrics are hidden from the storefront.
   • Default fabric — see Default fabric.
4. Upload textures in the Textures card — see Textures and render settings.
5. Use Save thumbnail on the 3D preview to capture the swatch customers see in the picker.

Field reference

Common questions

Customers can't see the fabric. Check it is Enabled, that its product rule includes the product, and that at least one texture or a thumbnail is uploaded.

Do I need all five textures? No. A normal map alone gives a convincing weave. See the next article for which maps matter most.
