*About both ordinary cars and green cars

The seats of the Tokaido Shinkansen N700 series type A are made of moquette fabric called "velvet", and are characterized by their high-quality appearance and feel. The pile on the surface is short and brushed, making it resistant to friction.



Because the fabric was taken from Shinkansen seats, it is not a single piece of cloth, but a three-dimensional object. It is cleaned in its three-dimensional shape, then unraveled and returned to a flat state.
