Jacket-Specific QC Checklist
Jackets require a more thorough QC review than simpler garments due to their complexity. Pay particular attention to zipper quality — this is often where cheaper construction shows. Check the lining for correct color and material. Verify badge or logo placement and attachment method. For down jackets, look for even fill distribution and no visible down leakage through the fabric.
