EN: canvas (fabric)
This is the OG heavy-duty fabric. Before there were high-tech polymers, there was *kanyamaso*. It's the tough stuff your Converse shoes, your tote bag, and the painter's canvas are made of. It's the fabric that says, "I'm not fancy, but I will not break on you."
From Spanish *cañamazo*, meaning "coarse canvas."
Often used to refer to the material for shoes (like sneakers), bags, and painting canvases. "Lona" is a more common synonym.
🇵🇭 Ang sapatos niya ay yari sa kanyamaso.

🇵🇭 Kailangan ng pintor ng bagong kanyamaso para sa kanyang obra.
