plain weave fabrics Explanation: I don't see why "toiles" are specifically canvas, though they would certainly include canvas. On the other hand, "textiles" also includes woven fabrics like satin and serge, non-woven textiles, jerseys and felts. https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armure_(tissage)#Armure_toile "L'armure, dans la terminologie du tissage de textile, est le mode d'entrecroisement des fils de chaîne et des fils de trame. Il existe trois armures principales : toile, serge et satin. À partir de ces trois armures sont fabriqués de nombreux tissus avec aussi des combinaisons des armures principales." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weaving https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armure_(tissage)#Armure_toile |

canvas Explanation: I have previously worked on a shoe-care company website and any reference to "toiles" was translated as canvas. However, it is always advisable to reach out to the client if you can for further clarification. |
