Well, that explain we is so hard to keep the plaits.

Anyway, It feels great, very "freedomly".

Ironing box pleats is a hard job, for me at least (if you consider I dont Iron any other garment for wear it)
Im guessing if kinfe pleats are easier to iron?

Thanks for your comments.

Yes, 'garbardine' refers to the type of weave and is used to make trench coats and cargo shorts. The fabric can be cotton, wool, or some synthetic.
