Why Choosing the Right Jersey Knit Is Crucial for Your Next Season

Jersey knit stands at the core of streetwear, valued for its versatility and widespread application - from graphic tees to premium athleisure. With its unique physical properties and process flexibility, jersey knit empowers continuous innovation, enabling designers to push boundaries and create styles that range from everyday casual to high-end fashion. Selecting the right jersey fabric at the outset is crucial: it ensures the design intent is realized and production remains efficient. That's why we embed fabric selection into every stage of our workflow—connecting design, production, and market needs—to maximize the potential of jersey knits for your brand.

Fabric Weight & GSM

Lightweight jerseys (around 140–160 GSM) suit breathable, drapey tees. Mid-weight options provide more structure for fashion-forward cuts. We guide clients in GSM selection based on market trends and intended garment function.

Stretch and Recovery

Elastane blends deliver flexibility, but poor recovery causes distortion after washes. Our sourcing ensures that the jersey knit maintains shape across wash cycles—a vital factor for consistent customer satisfaction.

Surface Finish

From smooth finish for precise prints to slub textures for vintage effect, jersey knit surface treatment decides the overall vibe of your garment. The front is smooth and flat, while the back has horizontal stripes. The fabric is light and thin, has good extensibility and elasticity, and has good drape.

Market

The knitted fabric market is showing an upward trend. Producers' demand for high-quality and high-value-added products is increasing, and consumers are paying more attention to the comfort, durability, and aesthetics of products. Functional and technological products are gradually becoming the new darlings of the market. The concept of green environmental protection has taken root in people's hearts, and consumers are more inclined towards products made of eco-friendly fibers and produced through sustainable methods.

Integrating Fabric into the Full Production Cycle

Choosing fabric is more than a purchase—it's a commitment to your brand's image. We integrate custom sports jerseys selection into our OEM/ODM process, providing samples that match bulk production outcomes.

We help you turn fabrics into branded apparel not just by supplying textiles, but by ensuring they perform perfectly in the intended silhouette, ink, and print process.
