Short-sleeved cotton blends and pure cotton are common summer fabrics, and they have their own characteristics and applicable occasions. Below I will compare these two fabrics in terms of breathability, comfort, ease of care, etc., hoping to help you make a choice.
First of all, breathability. Pure cotton clothes have good air permeability because cotton fiber itself has good air permeability and hygroscopicity, which can quickly absorb sweat and discharge it from the body to keep the body dry. Cotton blended fabrics contain chemical fibers. Although they also have a certain degree of breathability, they are slightly inferior to pure cotton.
Secondly, in terms of comfort. Pure cotton clothes have a soft and comfortable feel, are very comfortable to wear, will not irritate the skin, and are not prone to static electricity; cotton blended fabrics contain chemical fibers, which feel slightly harder and are not as comfortable to wear as pure cotton.
Finally, easy care. Pure cotton clothes are easy to wash and dry, are not easy to fade, deform, and wrinkle, and are relatively simple to care for. Cotton blended fabrics contain chemical fibers, which are prone to pilling, fading, deformation, and wrinkles, and require special care.
In general, if you pay more attention to breathability and comfort, it is recommended to choose pure cotton short-sleeved clothes; if you pay more attention to style or need some special For fabric effects, you can choose cotton blended fabrics. Of course, no matter which fabric you choose, you need to make your choice based on your needs and personal preferences.
