Crepe weave fabrics, known for their pebbly or crinkled (rough) surface, are widely used in clothing and bedding applications. Crinkled appearance for crepe weave can be achieved by different interlacement patterns. Generally, six methods/interlacement patterns are commercially used for fabricating crepe woven fabrics. However, there isn’t any significant study reporting clothing comfort and mechanical attributes of crepe variants. In this study, crepe fabrics were developed by these six methods i.e., Base sateen (BS), Reversing method (R), Superimpose (SI), Subset (SS), Quarter turn (QT), and Plain base (P) methods. The yarn linear density, fabric density, and other fabric parameters were kept the same to determine the best development method for fabricating crepe woven fabric having higher thermal, sensorial, and mechanical properties. Characterization data revealed that each crepe variation possesses unique structural and physical parameters making performance differences i.e., the BS specimen exhibited the highest air permeability owing to higher porosity, the R specimen had superior Overall moisture management capability (OMMC) index due to compact yarn linkage, and the SS specimen showed best thermal conductivity performance due to its sophisticated crinkled appearance. Among mechanical attributes QT exhibited higher tensile and puncture strengths due to its compact structure with higher interlacements however, sateen interlacement governing yarn slippage made the tear strength higher for the BS specimen.

In this study, we quantified changes in the mechanical and surface properties of cotton piqué crepe fabrics from worn undershirts to estimate their durability. Five worn men's undershirts tailored from cotton piqué crepe fabric were kindly supplied by a textile expert. A repeated laundering test of the piqué undershirt fabric was also conducted. The mechanical and surface properties of the fabric were measured using the Kawabata Evaluation System for Fabrics and the hand values were calculated. The wearing comfort of a pair of short pants tailored from the cotton piqué crepe fabric was assessed by female students before and after 4 weeks of wearing.The extensibility at the maximum tensile load of fabrics increased with wearing, and the bending and shear properties of fabrics decreased. The value of bending rigidity B1 of the warp direction of fabrics decreased with the number of washes, and the B1 values of fabrics after wearing decreased, corresponding to the estimated number of washes. After 10 seasons of wearing, primary hand values calculated by the KN202 conversion equation show that the hari (anti-drape stiffness) decreased and sofutosa (softness) and shinayakasa (suppleness) increased. Because the piqué structure was retained, shari (crispness) was almost unchanged, even after 10 seasons of wearing. Thus, the softness and suppleness of the fabric increased after 10 seasons of wearing and the crispness and moderate anti-drape stiffness that are desirable characteristics of summer clothing were maintained. An increase in comfort for the short pants evaluated by female students after 4 weeks of wearing was measured by the soft and smooth sensations. Garments tailored from cotton piqué crepe fabrics retained a good tactile feel after wearing, suggesting that cotton crepe fabrics might be appropriate for various new applications.
