About the Marathon Polyester range

Marathon Polyester runs to 301 colors. Blues make up the biggest group with 57 shades, followed by pinks and oranges, and 22 of the colors are whites, greys, blacks or something close to them. The palest shade is 2116 Star White, the deepest is 2210 Dark Purple / Navy, and if you want punch, 2151 Erin Green (#8bd700) is the most saturated color in the line. Matched against Isacord 40, 71% of these colors have a close equivalent; against Madeira Polyneon 40 the figure is 61%. In practice a design digitized for either brand can be stitched in Marathon Polyester with a few substitutions rather than a rethink. Being polyester, it keeps its color through washing and bleach; a match taken from a rayon brand will read slightly flatter in the stitch-out.
