Solutions for LA Streetwear Brands | Heavyweight Hoodies & Custom Wash

What Problems We Can Solve

1. Reduce Shrinkage After Washing

Many heavyweight garments lose their original fit after washing due to unstable fabric tension and poor pre-shrinking processes. We control shrinkage through fabric relaxation, wash testing, and pattern compensation, helping brands maintain consistent sizing, better customer satisfaction, and fewer return issues after bulk production.

2. Prevent Fabric Twisting and Seam Distortion

Oversized t-shirts and hoodies often twist after washing because of unstable yarn construction and incorrect fabric alignment. We reduce garment torque through controlled grain alignment, stable fabric engineering, and wash stability testing, ensuring cleaner side seams, balanced silhouettes, and better long-term garment structure.

3. Improve Color Fastness and Reduce Fading

Poor dyeing and uncontrolled wash processes can cause fading, color bleeding, and uneven garment appearance. We use reactive dye systems, controlled wash development, and color fastness testing to improve color durability, helping premium streetwear brands maintain a cleaner, richer, and longer-lasting product appearance.

4. Maintain Oversized Fit and Shape Stability

Heavyweight hoodies and oversized garments can easily lose shape without proper construction and rib support. We develop engineered oversized patterns, reinforced seam structures, and balanced rib systems to maintain shoulder shape, hood structure, and overall garment stability after repeated washing and daily wear.

How Kellogg Controls Shrinkage

1. Fabric Relaxation Before Cutting:We allow fabric to fully relax before cutting to reduce internal tension.This helps stabilize:body length, chest width, sleeve dimensions
· 2. Pre-Shrunk Fabric Development:We use controlled compacting and pre-shrinking processes for heavyweight fabrics.
· French Terry:<5%
· Fleece Cotton:<5%
· Jersey Cotton:3–4%
· 3.Wash Testing Before Bulk Production: Every bulk production undergoes wash testing to verify:
· Dimensional stability
· Fabric torque
· Color durability
· Handfeel consistency
· 4. Pattern Compensation Engineering: Our pattern team adjusts garment measurements based on expected shrinkage percentages.This ensures the final washed garment maintains the intended oversized fit.
· Technical Standards:
· Fabric Relaxation:24–48 Hours
· Wash Testing:Before Bulk
· Shrinkage Tolerance:<5%
· Fabric Compacting:Applied
· Steam Stabilization:Applied

How Kellogg Improves Color Fastness

1. Reactive Dye Process:We use stable reactive dyeing systems for better fiber bonding.This improves:
· Washdurability
· Colorconsistency
· Long-term appearance
· 2.Controlled Wash Development: We carefully adjust: Wash temperature; Enzye concentration; Wash duration to protect color integrity
· 3. Color Fastness Testing:We perform testing for: washing fastness, rubbing fastness, perspiration fastness
· Wash Fastness:Grade 4–5
· Rubbing Fastness:Grade 4
· Color Consistency:Controlled
