The customer is asking about Heritage fabric. Anyone ever heard of it? I did a google search, and I can find where chiro upholsterers use it in their business, but I can't figure out where to get the fabric.
The claim is that this is not a type of vinyl, but a fabric in it's own class. I've been using Naugahyde Sta-Soft, but the customer is requesting this. It seems to hold up well, as he brought me a table from the 90's and there are no rips or tears; it's just a little old looking.
I did read that it's more permeable than vinyl.
The name Heritage may just be the mill like Irvin Alan or it might be like Spalding. See if you can get a pattern number or something. There are some tear, puncture proof fabrics out there. I will look some up and let you know. I will check my books for this also.

Thank you Chris. Sofa, this isn't the same stuff. This seems to be outdoor fabric, but the stuff on the table is really super soft, with a smooth almost invisible grain.
Are you they got the name right? I've been recovering seating for healthcare for many years and have not heard of it.
