Two blue and white striped cotton swatches: flat poplin on the left, seersucker with puckered white stripes on the right ### Seersucker Traditional slack-tension seersucker has raised bands along the warp, giving the garment a puckered look. Pinstripe names very narrow, closely spaced stripes, which can be woven or printed. Specify the stripe pattern separately from the cloth’s surface; see [yarn dyeing](/techniques/yarn-dyeing). ## Specifying seersucker on a tech pack We source other seersucker variants to your brief. - **Supply item and style**: Name the garment or fabric required and attach the style reference. - **Fibre content**: List each fibre and its percentage. - **Finished GSM and usable width**: State the target weight in g/m² and usable width in centimetres. - **Yarn counts**: Give each warp count and the weft count. - **Ends and picks**: Specify the warp and weft thread counts, with their units. - **Colours and repeat**: Include the colour references and the stripe or check repeat dimensions. - **Pucker reference**: Attach a fabric reference for the required texture. - **Finish and care**: State the finish and care cycle, with the required dimensions and appearance after care. - **Quantity per colourway**: Give garment quantities in pieces or fabric quantities in metres.

No. Seersucker can contain a blend of fibres. Specify the composition separately, with each fibre’s percentage. ### What GSM should we specify for seersucker? Specify the finished weight for the garment. GSM means grams per square metre; use the [GSM calculator](/tools/gsm-calculator) with your fabric measurements. ### Do you supply seersucker fabric as well as garments? Yes. We supply seersucker fabric on its own, by the metre. ### Is seersucker the same as linen? No. [Linen](/materials/linen) is made from flax fibre taken from the plant’s stem. ### How do I get a seersucker fabric price? We quote against the required construction and finish, with the metres per colourway and target price. A stripe or check reference gives us the pattern to cost. A question this does not answer?
