None of them are glamorous, and all of them are the difference between a garment you keep and one you replace next year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Weight tells you the season<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fabric weight is measured in grams per square metre, and it is the single most honest number on a spec sheet. A summer shirt at 110gsm and a winter one at 180gsm can be cut identically and behave nothing alike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Weave tells you the wear<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A tight weave resists snagging and holds its shape; an open one breathes and creases. Neither is better, but a design that wants a crisp collar and picks an open weave will disappoint everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Finish tells you the truth<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some finishes are there to make a fabric feel expensive on the shelf and wash out on the third cycle. We ask for a washed sample every time, because that is the garment the customer actually owns.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Weight, weave and finish decide how a garment ages.
