Why 280GSM Cotton is the Gold Standard

What makes heavyweight cotton superior to regular tees? Let's break it down.

Not all t-shirts are created equal. The difference between a ₹200 mall tee and a ThreadAX heavyweight lies in one crucial metric: GSM (Grams per Square Meter).

What is GSM?

GSM measures the weight and density of fabric. A higher GSM means thicker, more durable material.

  • 120-150 GSM: Thin, see-through tees (common in fast fashion)
  • 180-200 GSM: Standard mid-weight tees
  • 240-280 GSM: Heavyweight premium tees (ThreadAX territory)
  • 300+ GSM: Ultra-heavy, almost sweatshirt-like

Why We Choose 280 GSM

280GSM hits the sweet spot between structure and comfort. Our tees:

  • ✅ Hold their shape — no warping or shrinking
  • ✅ Feel substantial — you can feel the quality instantly
  • ✅ Drape beautifully — especially in oversized cuts
  • ✅ Last longer — they survive dozens of washes without losing quality
  • ✅ No see-through — solid opacity in every color

The ThreadAX Difference

We combine premium 280GSM cotton with bio-washed finishing, double-stitched seams, and custom-dyed colors for a product that truly feels luxury. Once you wear a ThreadAX tee, there's no going back to regular cotton.
