600D Oxford rental kart suits
Oxford-weave shell fabric is a common choice for rental fleets. Here is what the name means and what to check before you buy.
What "600D Oxford" means
600D (600 denier) describes the thickness of the yarn: a higher denier means a heavier yarn. "Oxford" describes the weave, a basket-style construction that gives a firm, hard-wearing surface. Together they describe the fabric's build, not its fibre.
Oxford fabrics in this weight are most often polyester, and many are coated on the back. Coatings and fibres vary between mills, so ask for the composition and any coating of the fabric quoted, and compare samples rather than names.
Where it fits a rental fleet
Oxford-weave suits are often chosen where budget matters and a fleet is replaced on a regular cycle. Colour range, how the fabric takes branding and how it handles your washing routine are worth checking on a sample.
Before you order
Ask for the fabric composition, any coating, the lining, the seam construction and the care instructions. We state these in the quotation for the suit you approve.

Is 600D Oxford the same as CORDURA®?
No. 600D and Oxford describe yarn weight and weave. CORDURA® is a brand of fabrics, mostly nylon, made to its owner's specifications. A fabric can be 600D without being CORDURA®.
Which lasts longer?
It depends on the exact fabric, the garment construction, how hard the suits are used and how they are washed. Test both on samples in your own routine.
