Fabric Weight Options (240–380 GSM)

Advanced Fleece Fabric Construction
We use brushed fleece and loopback (French terry) fabrics designed for softness, insulation, and durability over the long haul.
Durable Ribbed Cuffs and Waistbands
High-recovery rib knitting keeps garments in place, no matter how often they are washed and worn.
Reinforced Neckline Construction
Crewneck collars are stabilized with reinforced stitching and rib binding, preventing stretching over the course of time.
Shrinkage Control Processes
pre-treatment and controlled fabric finishing help minimize shrinkage after washing.
Colorfast Dyeing
We use color-stable dyeing processes to maintain shade consistency and reduce fading.
Sweatshirt Fabric Expertise
Fabric selection is one of the most important elements in sweatshirt manufacturing. We are assisting brands in deciding what material to use based on where the product sits in their category, who they market to, and what price point they’re targeting.
Brushed Fleece
Brushed fleece is manufactured with a soft interior surface that is achieved via mechanical brushing. Offering a cozy, comforting feel should be the top fabric for winter sweatshirts and high-end streetwear collections.
Unbrushed Fleece
Unbrushed fleece retains a smoother internal structure, providing insulation. This option is popular for light or transitional seasonal garments.
French Terry (Loopback)
The loopback inside of French terry fabric helps it breathe while keeping its shape. For casual wear and everyday shopping, midweight sweatshirts are extremely popular.
Cotton and Cotton-Polyester Blends
Cotton is naturally soft and breathable, while polyester blends make things last longer and keep their shape. These blends are often used to make sweatshirts for sale.
Fabrics that are heavy vs. medium weight
Heavyweight Hoodies (320–380 GSM)
Because of its structure and durability, it is popular with streetwear brands and high-end retail collections.
Sweatshirts in the middle weight range (240–300 GSM)
Perfect for everyday casual wear and business clothes where comfort and versatility are important.
