Fibres are damaged and garments lose their shape. Other brands are generally producing machine washable tweeds by subjecting the cloth to a consolidating chlorine gas. However, this gassing process, known as Chlor Hercosett, increases the likelihood of a coarse stiff cloth that can only be made using dull colour yarns. Musto developed a plasticising process with a Scottish Mill which coats the fibres and the scales making them smooth and flexible, rather than coarse and stiff. This consolidates the cloth the original handle, vibrant colour and shape are maintained when washed at 30C, providing the extra benefit of being easy care with no sacrifice to the cloths premium feel.
