The weight of a fabric, measured in GSM (grams per square meter) or ounces, is an important consideration as it impacts the feel and function of the garment. Lighter fabrics (e.g., 5-ounce poly/cotton blends) are great for breathability and comfort in warmer climates, while heavier fabrics (e.g., 6.6-ounce snag-proof polyester) offer more durability and structure. For example, the Port Authority Silk Touch Polo at 5 ounces is perfect for everyday wear, whereas the Ladies Snag-Proof Polo Shirt at 6.6 ounces is ideal for more rugged use. SanMar offers a range of fabric weights to match various needs and preferences.
