Product Overview & Key Features
Polyester French terry fabric is a knitted fabric featuring a smooth face side and a loop-back interior structure. Compared with fleece, the looped back provides lighter weight and improved breathability while still offering warmth and comfort. This fabric is commonly produced in a single-face French terry construction, making it suitable for sweatshirts, hoodies, tracksuits, and casual outerwear.
With fabric weights typically ranging from 220 to 360 GSM, polyester French terry offers good dimensional stability, wrinkle resistance, and durability during repeated washing and wear. The polyester yarn construction also supports efficient dyeing and color consistency, making it suitable for bulk garment production. Depending on the required appearance and hand feel, the fabric can be supplied with fine loop-back, fish scale texture, brushed surface, or anti-pilling finishing.
