Score out of 10 for how reliable each check is from photos:
- Fabric weight: 5/10. Photos can’t show weight. Ask for a short video of the hoodie hanging and being squeezed; structure shows in how it falls.
- Fabric face: 8/10. Daylight, close-up, slight angle.
- Panel colour match: 9/10. Easy, and often off on lower tiers.
The heavyweight tees thread explains why “heavier” isn’t automatically “better”; same idea here.
