Start with the wearing scenario

Climate, activity level, wearer profile, retail positioning and care expectations influence material and construction choices.

A useful material discussion covers structure, weight, surface, stretch, breathability and compatibility with the intended print route.

Turn preference into references

Use measurement tables, fit samples, material references and artwork layouts to make subjective preferences reviewable.

Regional labels alone do not define a fit; confirm the actual body and garment measurements required for the target channel.

A practical next step

Connect the question to your actual product, quantity range, target market and launch timing before treating a general guideline as a fixed production commitment.

KSM can review the relevant development route and confirm which references, records and commercial terms apply to the project.
