390GSM 75% Cotton 25% Poly Terry Fabric

Moisture Management: The looped terry construction combined with high cotton content provides excellent absorbency, making the fabric effective for wicking moisture away from the skin.
Dimensional Stability: The integration of 25% polyester reduces the tendency of cotton to shrink or stretch out of shape, maintaining the garment's fit after repeated washing.
Durability: Polyester fibers increase the tensile strength of the fabric, allowing the heavy loops to withstand friction and industrial laundering without significant pilling or breakdown.
Wide Width Utility: The 185CM width allows for efficient pattern cutting, reducing waste and accommodating larger garment panels more effectively than standard narrower fabrics.

Composition: 75% Cotton / 25% Polyester
Fabric Type: Terry (Looped Knit)
Weight: 390GSM
Width: 185CM
Surface: Uncut loop piles

Heavyweight Hoodies & Sweatpants: The fabric's weight and warmth make it suitable for winter activewear, premium hoodies, and joggers.
Robust Towels & Robes: Can be utilized for high-end bathrobes, spa towels, or beach covers where a thicker, more luxurious absorbency is required.
Casual Jackets: Suitable for zip-up hoodies or outer layer jackets intended for cool weather climates.
Loungewear: Ideal for comfortable home wear where durability and comfort are prioritized over lightness.

Heavyweight Texture: At 390GSM, the fabric has a substantial, solid hand feel. The terry loops create a cushioned surface that traps air for insulation.
Breathable Insulation: The structure allows air circulation within the loops, providing warmth without overheating, which regulates body temperature effectively.
Color Retention: The polyester blend helps lock in dyes, providing color consistency and resistance to fading even after prolonged exposure to sunlight and washing.
Minimal Stretch: Unlike lightweight jersey knits, this heavy terry fabric offers stability with limited horizontal stretch, ensuring garments hold their structure.

Q: Does the 25% polyester content significantly reduce the absorbency?
A: The reduction is minimal because 75% of the fiber content remains cotton. The primary role of the polyester here is to improve durability and shape retention. The fabric remains highly absorbent, though it may dry slightly faster than 100% cotton due to the synthetic fibers.
Q: Will the terry loops flatten over time?
A: While heavy terry fabric is durable, the loops may compress under pressure or with extensive use. To restore the loft of the loops, it is recommended to tumble dry on a low or medium heat setting, which helps fluff the fibers back up.
Q: Is pre-shrinking necessary before production?
A: Although the polyester content helps control shrinkage, pre-shrinking (compacting) is still recommended for a 390GSM cotton-blend fabric to ensure strict dimensional tolerance in the final finished garment.
