Yes. For example, on door panels when you push your finger into the fabric, with synthetic the fabric will pop back out whereas the natural cotton will stay indented for a short period before humidity makes the cotton swell.

When I look at the tufting or on the top material, synthetic always looks "pregnant" to me. Regular natural cotton batten looks just like the Ford pictures where it is flat and not puffy .
