Selecting coats fabric 280 to 400 gsm
280 to 400 GSM is a planning band for coats. It is not a score, and it is not evidence that a FabStitch fabric publishes that exact number.
How to use the band
Heavier apparel and lighter work layers. Heat retention rises with the mass.
For coats, the brief needs durable face. A useful hand note is stable structure.
What still matters more
Compare GSM only inside one construction. Meltons, dense wools, technical outerwear constructions and selected double-face cloths lead.
If the fabric page omits weight, leave the cell blank and ask in the inquiry.
