Fabric and GSM guidance

Fabric options for custom clothing manufacturing

Use these fabric references when discussing custom clothing production with a manufacturer: compare jersey, French terry, fleece, interlock, mesh, rib, twill, and performance fabrics by garment use. Stock fabrics may support sample development; custom fabric development is for bulk orders. Final composition, GSM, color, finish, availability, and price depend on the garment requirements.
