Key Aspects of Hoodies & Sweats Inspection

1. Fabric Quality Evaluation
   • Check for defects like stains, tears, pilling, or uneven texture.
   • Verify the weight, softness, stretch, and thickness of the fabric to match product specifications.
   • Test for shrinkage and colorfastness to ensure long-term quality.
2. Seam and Stitching Inspection
   • Inspect all seams for strength, alignment, and neatness.
   • Identify any loose threads, skipped stitches, or fraying edges.
   • Evaluate reinforcement at high-stress areas such as armholes, cuffs, and pockets.
3. Measurements and Fitting
   • Confirm the garment dimensions align with the size chart, including chest width, sleeve length, body length, and hood size.
   • Check symmetry between components like sleeves, pockets, and hems.
4. Hood and Drawstring Quality
   • Ensure the hood is evenly constructed, properly aligned, and functional.
   • Verify drawstring quality, length, and secure attachment to prevent fraying or detachment.
   • Assess eyelets for durability and proper installation.
5. Zipper and Closure Inspection
   • Test zippers for smooth operation and alignment.
   • Inspect for proper attachment, durability, and symmetry of zippers, buttons, or snaps.
6. Pocket and Design Detail Evaluation
   • Check pockets for proper placement, even stitching, and functionality.
   • Inspect decorative details, such as embroidery, prints, or embellishments, for accuracy, durability, and clarity.
7. Color and Dye Consistency
   • Assess dyeing for uniformity across the garment and between production batches.
   • Test for resistance to fading, bleeding, or discoloration during washing or exposure to sunlight.
8. Comfort and Durability Testing
   • Evaluate fabric for softness, breathability, and wearability.
   • Conduct physical tests for stretch recovery and resistance to wear and tear.
9. Packaging and Labeling
   • Verify that each item is neatly folded and packaged according to client specifications.
   • Ensure that size labels, care instructions, and branding are correctly placed, legible, and durable.
