My company is based in the UK and I am looking for companies based in
the UK, Europe or USA (my preference is for UK/Europe) that can supply
us with the following:

 Small quantities (10-100 metres) of visually stunning high
performance fabrics suitable for high design luggage that we are
designing.

The materials must be suitable for stitching.
The materials must be available in a width of  more than 56cm. 150cm
or over would be preferable.
Thickness must be uniform and no thicker than 1000D Cordura

By high performance I mean close to the toughness and durability of
ballistic nylon or Cordura.

By visually stunning I mean some or all of the following: subtle
colours or patterns, interesting textures. Also of interest would be
pre-distressed leather or synthetic leather, synthetic animal skins
such as zebra, leopard, snake.

Examples of existing products that use the sort of materials I need:
Porsche Design use a very subtle weave black ballistic nylon. Tumi
have a limited edition holdall made of a very distinctive orangey
material.

I am only interested in companies that are prepared to send me small
samples of material for my evaluation.

I am not interested in countries outside the areas listed at the top.

I am not interested in companies that supply only standard Cordura or
ballistic nylons.
