# French Terry Loop Density QC for Hoodie and Casualwear OEM (NA/EU)
What is French terry loop density QC for apparel OEM buyers?
A **French terry loop density QC** gate checks loop height/consistency and face appearance so casualwear handfeel and coverage stay within the approved sample.

4. **Wash impact** — compare loop appearance after the signed wash recipe.
5. **Shade lots** — check multiple dye lots for loop crush or unevenness.

When should French terry loop density QC be checked against the finished garment?
Check after sewing, pressing, decoration when relevant, and the approved garment wash—not only on greige fabric. Measure the first sample against the signed method, then after the wash recipe and drying method signed for bulk. If yarn, knitting, wash chemistry, softener, dryer setting, pattern, or decoration changes, repeat the gate before releasing the 1,000-piece style MOQ.
“Approve French terry loop density after wash; record loop notes, GSM, dye lot, and photo refs on the sample QA sheet.” — common buyer QA practice for OEM approval
