Tech Pack & Fit
Review measurements, sweatshirt silhouette, rib dimensions, seam details, fit block and artwork placement.
Crea Textile / Product Engineering
Sweatshirts are developed in 3-thread fleece constructions, with fabric weight, hand-feel, warmth, recovery and finishing engineered around the target product and price point.
From specification to shipment
A controlled production route designed around fit, fabric performance, repeatability and final inspection.
Review measurements, sweatshirt silhouette, rib dimensions, seam details, fit block and artwork placement.
Develop 3-thread fleece by composition, yarn, knit structure, GSM, colour and finishing; standard production is typically 300–320 GSM.
Develop the first sample, fit sample and revisions until measurements, hand-feel and appearance are approved.
Relax fabric, prepare markers and cut body, sleeve and rib panels with controlled shrinkage allowance.
Assemble shoulders, sleeves, body and rib openings using the approved seam and stitch specifications.
Apply print, embroidery, labels and other branding after confirming placement, scale and test results.
Apply wash or softener finish where required, press, thread trim, fold, label and prepare cartons.
Check measurements, GSM, fabric consistency, workmanship, branding and packing before final shipment release.
Fabric engineering
3-thread fleece starts from around 220 GSM. Standard sweatshirt production is typically 300–320 GSM, while custom GSM can be developed to the required product specification.
| Fabric / Construction | Typical GSM | Best Use |
|---|---|---|
| 3-Thread Cotton Fleece | 220–320+ GSM | Soft, structured sweatshirts with a natural cotton hand-feel |
| 3-Thread CVC Fleece | 280–320 GSM | Balanced softness, durability and shape retention |
| 3-Thread Cotton / Polyester Fleece | 280–340+ GSM | Stable construction, easy-care programs and repeat production |
| Heavyweight 3-Thread Fleece | 320–400+ GSM | Premium heavyweight silhouettes and cold-weather programs |
| Custom 3-Thread Fleece | 220–400+ GSM | Custom-developed GSM and construction for a specific product brief |
3-thread fleece can be developed in cotton, CVC and cotton/polyester constructions, with the composition and hand-feel selected around the target product.
Rib construction, brushed or unbrushed inside, garment wash, softener finish, printing, embroidery, labels and packaging can be specified per product.
Standard sweatshirt weight is 300–320 GSM, but we can develop the required GSM from around 220 GSM upward to match the silhouette, season and target price.
