Types of sweatshirt fabric
100% cotton loopback is a natural-feeling choice for sweatshirts and tracksuits. Diagonal-loop fabric has a distinctive premium surface, while elastane blends offer more stretch for closer-fitting garments.
Depending on the project, we can advise on stabilisation, softening, brushing and other finishes. The choice between a lighter everyday fabric and a heavier, warmer construction depends on the garment, season and target customer.
Where sweatshirt fabric is used
Brands use sweatshirt fabric for hoodies, trousers, tracksuits, children's clothing, streetwear and premium collections. In B2B production, consistent weight, width and behaviour after washing are particularly important.
Brushed fleeceback feels warmer and softer on the inside, while loopback is versatile for year-round ranges. Elastane can help where the garment construction needs the fabric to move and recover.
Loopback, brushed or diagonal construction?
Loopback sweatshirt fabric has visible loops on the reverse and suits comfortable everyday garments. Brushed fabric has a fluffier, warmer reverse and is often chosen for hoodies, joggers and colder seasons.
Diagonal-loop construction gives the surface a more technical, premium character. It can be a good fit for minimalist or streetwear collections where the fabric texture is part of the design.
