How Can Brands Evaluate Sample Stitching Before Wear Testing?

Inspect stitching for skipped stitches, tension imbalance, seam extension, bulk, and edge distortion.

Evaluate samples against written acceptance criteria rather than an overall impression of quality. Fit, movement, workmanship, care performance, and branding may need separate checks; document observed failures and their conditions so the factory can address causes instead of repeatedly guessing at revisions. Examine stressed seams before starting movement tests.
