Gallery Dept. Paint Splatter Shorts Quality Control Report

This comprehensive QC report evaluates the Gallery Dept. Paint Splatter Shorts collection for authenticity and manufacturing quality. As a premium streetwear item, these shorts require meticulous inspection of fabric, paint application, and construction details.

Material and Construction Analysis

The shorts are constructed from heavyweight cotton twill with a soft, broken-in feel characteristic of authentic Gallery Dept. pieces. Key construction elements include:

Double-stitched side seams and hem for durability
Reinforced belt loops with bar tacks at stress points
Heavy-duty YKK zipper with smooth operation
Properly aligned front pockets with clean finishing

Paint Splatter Pattern Verification

The paint splatter effect is the defining feature requiring careful examination:

Paint distribution should appear random and organic, not symmetrical or patterned
Colors should match authentic references (typically white, black, and occasional accent colors)
Paint texture should have slight dimensional quality, not completely flat
No bleeding or smudging beyond intended splatter areas

Branding and Labeling Inspection

Authentic Gallery Dept. branding elements include:

Screen-printed "Gallery Dept." text on back with proper font weight and spacing
Woven size tag with correct font and placement inside waistband
Care label with accurate washing instructions and composition
Consistent paint splatter coverage over branding (should not be perfectly clean around text)

Sizing and Fit Assessment

Measurements should be compared against size chart specifications:

Waist measurement (laid flat, doubled) within 0.5" tolerance
Inseam length consistent with tagged size
Leg opening width appropriate for intended relaxed fit
Overall proportions matching authentic Gallery Dept. silhouette

How to Inspect Gallery Dept. Paint Splatter Shorts QC QC Photos

When viewing Quality Control (QC) photos for the Gallery Dept. Paint Splatter Shorts QC, pay close attention to the following details:

1. Paint Pattern Analysis

Examine the paint splatter distribution under good lighting. Authentic pieces show random, asymmetrical patterns with natural-looking drips and splatters. Check for consistency in paint texture - it should have slight thickness and dimension, not appear flat like printed fabric. Verify colors match reference images.

2. Stitching and Construction

Inspect all seams for consistent thread tension and straight stitching lines. Pay special attention to stress points like belt loops, pocket corners, and side seams. Check for proper bar tacks at reinforcement points. Examine the zipper installation for smooth operation and secure attachment.

3. Branding Verification

Verify all branding elements including screen-printed text on back, woven size tag, and care label. Check font accuracy, spacing, and placement against authentic references. Ensure paint splatter naturally overlaps branding areas rather than having clean borders around text.

4. Measurement Comparison

Take flat measurements of waist (doubled), inseam, leg opening, and front/back rise. Compare against the provided size chart with 0.5" tolerance. Check for consistent sizing across multiple pairs if available. Verify the relaxed fit proportions match Gallery Dept.'s signature silhouette.
