Face-free on-body fit review of the current charcoal sweatshirt sample

Charcoal Sweatshirt — Fit Review

This is a current development sample, not the final product. We reviewed the on-body fit of the charcoal sweatshirt, focusing on overall proportion, shoulder line, sleeve volume, and hem balance.

Charcoal Sweatshirt — Center-Back Construction Review

This is a current development sample, not the final product. We reviewed the center-back seam and construction to check how the line settles across the back and how cleanly the structure reads on body.

Charcoal Sweatshirt — Emblem Revision

This is a current development sample, not the final product. The emblem will be reworked to sit flatter and cleaner without puckering the outer fabric. The black version is planned for washing and recoloring before the next review.
