Rib Fabric Buying Guide

What GSM should I choose for rib fabric?

Lighter rib fabric around 160–220 gsm suits fitted tops, t-shirts, and dresses, while heavier rib from 250–420 gsm holds up better as cuffs, waistbands, and sweatshirt trims. See our weight guides linked above for specifics, or browse the blog for more detail.

What compositions work best for rib fabric?

Cotton-spandex rib fabric offers softness and breathability for everyday wear, while polyester-spandex rib is more durable and colorfast for activewear and repeated washing. Cotton-polyester blends balance cost and performance for general apparel.
