The Cricket is available in a type of microfibre fabric that has an incredibly soft, velvet-like feel.ย 

Microfibre is a lightweight, man made fabric that is very durable and resilient. Soft to the touch, this tactile fabric has a high level of colour fastness and can be manufactured to take on the characteristics of natural materials like leather, suede and nubuck.
โ€‹
Really versatile, microfibre fabric can also be printed, embroidered or heat embossed to create patterns and designs.
โ€‹
As this type of fabric is so durable, it will age well and is one of the easiest options to clean, making it a great choice for busy households or homes with younger children.
โ€‹
It can easily be cleaned with our fabric care kit, although you may want to ensure that Sofashield is selected for peace of mind.

Important tip: To avoid water marks after cleaning we advise that you dampen a colourfast cloth with boiled water from a kettle and gently wipe the entire panel or cushion from seam to seam. This will help to prevent any water stains as the fabric dries.
