T-shirt Fabric
T-shirts are the most commonly worn piece of clothing offering comfort and style at the same time. T-shirts have come a long way as the fashion and textile industry has progressed. Now, T-shirts are made out of so many other materials, with unique weaves, cuts, and printing techniques.
The fabric manufactured is rigorously tested, goes through the highest quality inspection standards.
100% Cotton
A typical 100% cotton t-shirt is made with carded open-end fibres giving it a fuzzy texture when placed under a microscope. This is the normal standard due to the fact that these T-shirts are durable.
Combed Cotton
Combed cotton is known to be really soft due to the fact that the cotton fibres are pre-treated before spinning. These are slightly on the expensive side but the hand feel of this cotton makes it worth it!
Organic Cotton
As the name suggests, the production of organic cotton has to be in an eco-friendly manner. This means significant reduction in the use of fertilizers and pesticides to grow cotton. As far as the material is concerned, its super soft, and as awareness regarding global warming increases, so will its production.
100% Ring-Spun Cotton
Ring spun cotton is a common quality used to make T-shirts. It is a strong and tight fabric and yet it feels more breathable and lightweight. This is because this cotton is processed in a way where the fibres which make the cotton yarn are straightened out so they all can flow towards the same direction.
Blended & Synthetic Fabrics for T-shirts
Even though cotton remains the most popular choice for T-shirt manufacturing, there are many other exciting options which include synthetic fabrics like polyester& lycra , or multi- blended varieties such as poly cotton, Polyester-cotton-spandex and modal blends.
Lycra infused T-shirts
Lycra is the material which provides the element of stretch ability to our clothing. It is often blended together with cotton and/or polyester to give it a balance of sturdiness and elasticity. It is commonly used for sportswear T-shirts which require a lot of movement.
Polyester T-shirts
Polyester is a synthetic fabric commonly used for athletic wear. Polyester T-shirts offer a lot of functionality. It is much stronger than cotton, dries much faster and provides better insulation. Polyester t shirts don’t get stains easily and have great moisture-wicking options. It’s a popular choice for athletes because of the stretch it offers. Polyester Jerseys are a very good choice to make athletic apparel.
