What is French Terry?
French Terry is a versatile and comfortable fabric known for its soft texture and durability. It is a type of knit fabric characterized by a smooth, soft surface on one side and unlooped, short yarn loops on the other. This unique structure gives it a distinct texture and makes it both cozy and breathable.
Typically made from cotton or a blend of cotton and synthetic fibers, French Terry is lightweight to medium-weight, making it suitable for a variety of garments such as sweatshirts, hoodies, joggers, and casual wear. The fabric’s moisture-wicking properties and natural stretch make it a popular choice for activewear and loungewear.
French Terry is prized for its balance between warmth and breathability, offering comfort in cooler weather without being overly insulating. Its durability and easy-care nature also contribute to its widespread use in everyday and athleisure clothing. Whether lounging at home or heading to the gym, French Terry garments provide a stylish and functional option for many occasions.
