shoddy
Old cloth torn up and reworked into new fabric; hence anything cheap, spurious, or badly made.
“That coat is pure shoddy — made from soldiers' old coats and sold as new broadcloth.”
Note: Hotten's 1864 dictionary records the Yorkshire cloth-trade sense (old coats unravelled and re-woven into ladies' mantles) and the wartime ‘shoddyite’ profiteer; Ferrand cited it in Parliament on 4 March 1842.
