Polyester satin / chiffon
French terry is a knit fabric with a smooth flat face and small loops on the back. The smooth face prints cleanly via sublimation or DTF, while the looped back provides warmth and a soft feel against the skin. It's the standard substrate for streetwear hoodies, joggers, and pullover sweatshirts — lighter than fleece but warmer than jersey.
