Fabric Is the Foundation of Custom Apparel
Competitor fabric pages usually introduce material types such as cotton, washed cotton, fleece, French terry, mesh, nylon, satin, denim and knitted fabrics. STX reorganizes these choices around your real product goal: streetwear feel, durability, shape, price and production scale.
1.
Shape & Structure
The same pattern looks different on soft jersey, compact cotton, heavyweight terry or brushed fleece.
2.
Comfort & Season
Breathability, softness, warmth and stretch should match your market and wearing scenario.
3.
Craft Compatibility
Printing, embroidery, washing and dyeing perform differently depending on fabric surface and composition.
4.
MOQ & Cost Control
Stock fabrics, custom dyeing and special finishing create different production thresholds and lead times.

Questions Before Choosing Fabric
Can STX help choose fabric if I only have reference photos?
Yes. Reference photos, target fit, hand-feel direction, season and target price can help us recommend practical fabric options.
What fabrics are best for heavyweight hoodies?
French terry and brushed fleece are common options. The right choice depends on structure, softness, warmth, shrinkage and desired streetwear silhouette.
Can I request custom colors or vintage wash effects?
Yes. Custom color, garment dye, enzyme wash, acid wash and faded effects can be reviewed based on quantity, fabric type and production timeline.
What fabric information is needed for quotation?
Please provide garment type, target GSM, composition, color, texture, finishing, quantity, decoration method and reference images if available.
Do fabric choices affect MOQ?
Yes. Stock fabrics usually support more flexible development, while custom dyeing, special structures and unique finishes may require higher minimums.

Fabric hand feel, shrinkage, color and craft compatibility can be checked through sampling and pre-production confirmation.
