This student lab manual reinforces the chapter content and lecture material from Apparel Quality, but may also be used as a standalone product in conjunction with another apparel quality textbook. With more than 30 hands-on lab activities and projects to enhance learning, the lab manual offers a greater understanding of quality issues that arise with apparel production and end use. Designed for courses that emphasize textile testing or offer a laboratory component, Apparel Quality Lab Manual includes supply lists; extensive reference tables; assignments for analyzing products, testing and evaluating materials and garments; project sheets for product comparison testing; worksheets to record data; directions for mounting specimens after testing; and templates for cutting specimens.

Students will be actively engaged in their learning and participate in determining the quality level of apparel products, allowing them to simulate how apparel products are analyzed in the industry.

Industry Reviews
I really like the lab manual... Someone has really spent time thinking about these activities... I think it is a good way to make sure the student learn and understand these topics. -- Diane Limbaugh, Oklahoma State University, US
The [lab manual] is easy to read and to follow. The charts / tables seem to be placed in a logical spot so the flow of the material is not interrupted. I do see a strong application of this [lab manual] to my classroom. -- Mary Simpson, Baylor University, US
[The lab manual's] strengths include introducing various aspects of terminology, as well as a well-designed wear testing sequence... I especially like the use of the tables in the chapters, which are almost like a glossary of information relevant to the appropriate chapters, as well as the table listing the various test methods, both U.S and international, that can be used to evaluate different characteristics. -- Bruce A. Cameron, University of Wyoming, US
My general impression of the [manual] is very good. I would definitely use this lab manual when teaching an apparel evaluation course. The manual is very easy to follow and the instructions are very clear. The activities involve garments that the students will be easily able to find in their wardrobes and bring to class. The evaluation tables supplied to evaluate the quality of different types of garments are very thorough and complete. ... I feel that this manual would be beneficial to our classroom needs. -- Kathryn J. Reiley, Art Institute International, US
I would love to have this in my classes... I think even without a lab, this book content will be valuable. -- Tricia Edwards, FIDM, US
