French Terry

Definition

A knit fabric with a smooth face and looped pile interior (unlike fleece, which is brushed). French terry typically weighs 240-350 gsm and is the fabric of choice for premium sweatshirts, joggers, and year-round hoodies. The uncut loops provide moisture absorption and breathability, making it more versatile across seasons than brushed fleece.
