moleskin
Soft cotton fabric
Moleskin is a heavy cotton fabric with a soft, suede-like nap on one side, resembling the velvety fur of a mole.
It's used for durable work clothes, jackets, and trousers.
In a different application, moleskin refers to soft adhesive padding applied to feet to prevent or cushion blisters: I always pack moleskin for long hikes.
The fabric and the medical product share the quality of being soft against skin.
