Abstract

A high-density textile fabric produced by arranging, as warps and wefts, identical or different continuous filaments yarn at least 40% by weight of which are formed of filaments having a filament denier of 1.1 or less and which have a total denier of 120 or less, wherein cross-sectional overlaying coefficients, W.sub.p and W.sub.f, of the warps and wefts constituting said textile fabric simultaneously satisfy the following (a) and (b). EQU (a) 1.30 .gtoreq.W.sub.p .gtoreq.1.10 EQU (b) 1.20 .gtoreq.W.sub.F .gtoreq.0.85 Since the high-density textile fabric of the present invention not only exhibits high tearing strength but also has excellent water resistance performance in spite of its small thickness and light weight, it can be widely used not only as a closing material for ski wear, windbreakers, outdoors wear, coats, working clothes and operating gowns, but also for a shower curtain, a table cloth and a piece of cloth for an umbrella.
