When it comes to winter collections, choosing the right fabric is just as important as the design itself. The warmth, durability, and feel of your garment depend heavily on the fabric type — especially for hoodies, joggers, sweatshirts, and other cozy essentials.
At Alle Textile, based in Istanbul, we support our clients not only with production but also by helping them choose the best fabric for each product. Here’s a guide to some of the most suitable fabrics for winter garments:
🧵 1. Brushed Fleece (3-Thread Brushed)
Perfect for: Hoodies, joggers, oversized sweatshirts
- This heavyweight fabric has a soft, brushed interior that provides excellent insulation.
- A go-to choice for brands that want to create cozy, warm winter loungewear.
- Common blends: 100% cotton or cotton/polyester.
🧶 2. French Terry (2-Thread)
Perfect for: Light sweatshirts, loungewear, spring-fall collections
- A midweight fabric with loops on one side and a smooth surface on the other.
- Breathable, absorbent, and great for slightly cooler temperatures.
- Can be brushed or unbrushed depending on your design.
💨 3. Interlock Fabric
Perfect for: Athleisure, performance wear, women’s sets
- A double-knit structure that’s thicker and smoother than jersey.
- Offers a structured look and soft hand feel.
- Ideal for products that require a bit of stretch and form.
🧵 4. Thermal Knit / Waffle Knit
Perfect for: Base layers, winter tops, textured sets
- Known for its waffle-like pattern that traps heat.
- Lightweight but warm — a great option for base layers or layered styles.
5. Scuba Fabric
Perfect for: Structured hoodies, oversized joggers, modern sweatshirts
- A double-knit fabric that resembles neoprene, known for its smooth surface and slight stretch.
- Scuba holds its shape well, offering a modern and elevated look for streetwear or fashion-forward designs.
- It’s warmer than jersey but not as thick or soft as fleece — ideal for minimalist and sleek collections.
💡 Great for brands that want to stand out with bold silhouettes and a clean aesthetic.
