    How to Show Fabric & Stretch Information with Size Charts on Shopify

    Stretch % + composition next to measurements. Better fit decisions.

    Why Fabric Matters

    Two pieces with identical measurements fit very differently if one stretches and the other doesn't. 100% cotton denim stays the size it's cut. 5% elastane denim relaxes ~half a size after wear. Customers need this signal alongside numbers.

    What to Show

    Composition: "98% Cotton, 2% Elastane"
    Stretch: "Moderate stretch — gives ~1 inch in waist after wear"
    Weight: "12oz denim — heavy + structured" (helps for bottoms)
    Care: "Cold wash, hang dry — minimizes shrinkage"

    Setup

    App settings → Charts → edit chart → Fabric details. Add composition, stretch level, weight, care. Renders alongside the measurement table on the product page.

    FAQs
