Fabric and craftsmanship choices determine how custom streetwear feels, fits and performs. This collection helps clothing brands compare fabric GSM, fiber content, knit structure, printing, embroidery and garment washing before sampling.

GSM means grams per square metre: the mass of fabric over a defined area. It helps describe fabric weight, but it does not tell you everything about softness, warmth, durability or garment quality. For a custom clothing order, specify GSM together with fibre composition, fabric construction, finish and an approved physical sample.
