When should zipper tape shrinkage hoodie OEM 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 Zipper Tape Shrinkage Hoodie OEM on finished samples before bulk; record wash lot, measurements, and buyer tolerance on the sample QA sheet.” — common buyer QA practice for OEM approval
