On the subject of capes I don't know how many variations there are but can
I suggest that we add the word 'Rigid' to all those capes that hold their
form when lightly pinched at one end and then add the word 'Soft' to
all those capes that flop down under the same test

This would at least give people a rough idea of the style of cape with just a
quick glance

The correct terms to describe these fabrics would be Woven and Knit. (basically
the difference between a dress shirt and a T-shirt) However, not everyone understands
fabric construction.
As we already use Starched and Spongy, I just don't think adding even more
subjective terms would be very helpful.

[...] Well isn't 'Starched' just a further fabric construction that most people don't understand? I certainly did'nt until I just keyed it into google. [...]

[...] It would be really helpful if they would stop making the starched ones and we could all walk together into a bright future where capes are not immediately ruined on first [...]
