Fabric weight and composition are different

Fabric weight is one part of a garment specification, not a complete measure of suitability.

Understand fabric weight

Weight is generally expressed in grams per square metre. It describes the fabric but does not alone guarantee comfort or durability.

Read the fibre composition

Fabrics with a similar weight can behave differently. Consider the fibres together with fabric construction, garment cut and intended use.

Include care and decoration

Discuss washing and drying conditions and the intended personalisation. Compare proposals that identify the style, composition, weight and finishes, rather than a single number.

Describe your needs

You do not need to choose an exact composition alone. Share your activity, preferred appearance and constraints so the team can discuss feasible options.

Tell us about your needs

Describe your project, even if the garment styles have not yet been chosen. You can attach a list, scan or specification.
