Fabric guide: GSM explained

Why the weight of a T-shirt matters, and how to pick the right one for Indian weather.

GSM — grams per square metre — measures fabric density. 160–180 GSM feels light and airy; 200–240 GSM feels structured and premium.

For daily wear in humid cities, combed cotton around 180–200 GSM is the sweet spot. For oversized and streetwear fits, go heavier.
