Selecting loungewear fabric 200 to 280 gsm
200 to 280 GSM is a planning band for loungewear. It is not a score, and it is not evidence that a FabStitch fabric publishes that exact number.
How to use the band
Mid-weight territory for trousers, denser shirtings and some light jackets.
For loungewear, the brief needs comfort. A useful hand note is soft.
What still matters more
Compare GSM only inside one construction. Jersey, french terry and soft cellulosics dominate.
If the fabric page omits weight, leave the cell blank and ask in the inquiry.
