The back story
There is a magic in starting small and working your way up.
And if you believe the rumor, Touch Textiles started out in 1995, on the corner of 9th Street in the heart of the fabric district, selling jackets out of a box that fell off the back of a truck.*
Well, we’d rather not let ‘truth’ get in the way of a good story.
Let’s just say we could never have guessed that our humble beginnings peddling faux fur would lead to us becoming who we are now: fabric trailblazers with an unprecedented archive of original creations (including the original Minky Snuggles which we co-created back in our early days).
* Oh, and just in case you’re still wondering, no fabrics were stolen or peddled on the black market in our early days. The less interesting truth is that we slogged and hustled our way onto the market, etching out space for ourselves with grit, steely determination and a healthy dose of tenacity.

This symbiosis is a cornerstone of our relationships with our clients who know that we will collaborate with them to bring their vision to life, no matter how out there the idea may seem.
