Pleat wash testing protects the silhouette after the first laundry cycle — a buyer gate, not a showroom trick.
What manufacturing actually locks
Procurement searches stay on Tennis Skort Manufacturer. This page answers the process question: how a pleated skirt / skort is built so the first laundry cycle does not collapse the silhouette.
- Pleat map — knife / box / sunburst; depth and stitch-down at the yoke written on the measurement sheet.
- Liner — inner-short length and rise, or a true skirt (no short) when the brief asks.
- Ball pocket — side placement that survives a lunge without opening the A-line. Pair: ball-pocket construction.
- Wash gate — same dry method you will sell. Approve pleat recovery on the sample, not only on press-day photos.
