Microline: Smooth and silky microfibre fabric material available in four popular colors. This modern material is normally accented with Softhide vinyl for a unique, contemporary style.

Antigua: Our best-selling premium quality vinyl, all intermediately priced. All Antigua are slightly mottled in texture, shading and grain.

Suedene:  Materials Film vinyl referred to by the trade as “suedenes” should not be confused with our vinyl “suede”. Popular suedenes are smooth film vinyl with a uniform matte finish. Available in a rainbow of brilliant colors, these simple vinyls are ideal for programs, events or organizations with a color scheme.

Polished Clear (#00) is featured on business card pockets, document cases and offered on a few promotional items. Frosted Clear (#01) appears exclusively on multiple card windows such as business card pages. Other "film" vinyl (stock materials #02 through #34 and our Antigua line) are used in the manufacture of "heat-sealed" or "electronically stitched" items throughout the catalog; simply contact the factory for minimum quantity required if you are interested in a sealed item in a film vinyl not listed as stock.

"Expanded" vinyl (#85 through #93) are similarly available in deluxe editions of sealed items, as well as in our stitched Elite and Lethredge lines. Expanded/fabric-backed "supported" vinyl (stock #71 through #98) are featured exclusively on briefcases and fine executive items and are always nylon stitched.

Additional materials and colors are available for custom orders in quantity, and remnants are often available. Orders for "assorted colors" will be filled with any stock colors immediately available unless specific colors are requested.

Please note that vinyl pigments, grains and stretching may vary, and the complementary materials used on interior lining, pockets and/or tabs of some items may be changed from time to time: additionally, camera lighting and appearance of materials in some catalog photographs may vary. Swatch samples of any DLX materials are available at no charge upon request. DLX cannot assume responsibility for variances in shading/sizes due to the nature of vinyl and reserves the right to substitute equivalent or better vinyl to fill an order if necessary.
