Heavyweight Cotton Guide

GSM explained

Heavyweight cotton is the through-line of Fortuvo — but not every piece uses the same weight. GSM (grams per square metre) tells you how dense the fabric is. Here is how our range maps to real-world wear.

Fortuvo weights at a glance

  • 275gsmpolo (cotton pique, smart days)
  • 305–330gsmtee and long sleeve (dense cotton layers)
  • 310gsm — trouser (structured cotton bottom)
  • 530gsm — hoodie, sweatshirt, sweatpant (fleece uniform)

Layer pieces (305–330gsm)

Denser than most high-street tees (often 160–180gsm). Our 330gsm tee has a structured hand — it sits away from the body, holds a relaxed silhouette, and layers cleanly under fleece.

Fleece uniform (530gsm)

The heaviest tier. Shared across hoodie, sweatshirt, and sweatpant so your co-ord feels balanced. See our 530gsm fleece pieces and the dedicated why 530gsm guide.

How to choose

  • Everyday base: tee or long sleeve
  • Lounge & cold: hoodie or sweatshirt + sweatpant
  • Sharper days: polo + trouser
