Abstract
A simulated fabric is produced by heating a substrate having a layer of flocked material so that both the substrate and the flocked material are softened, and applying the surface of a mold, having a finely detailed simulated fabric pattern on it, to the flocked material to plastically deform the flock to a thickness less than the original thickness such that it acquires substantially the same pattern as on the mold surface.
