Customized T-shirt fabric suggestions

Dear partners, I believe that through the above sharing, everyone will have a better understanding of the fabric characteristics and characteristics of T-shirts. I have a new understanding of the difference. Many partners think that pure cotton fabrics are better. The advantages of pure cotton T-shirts are high wearing comfort, good hand feel, and they are pure natural fibers. Relatively speaking, they also play a certain role in environmental protection, but Pure cotton T-shirts have poor stiffness and are prone to wrinkles, especially after being put into the water. Therefore, when customizing T-shirts, you may wish to understand the characteristics of different fabrics first, and choose according to the occasion or purpose of your use. For example, for outdoor activities in summer camps, you can choose quick-drying or modal fabrics; if you wear work clothes in an office building, you can choose Polyester cotton or blended cotton; if it is worn by children, choose pure cotton fabric for better comfort. Thank you for your appreciation, I hope it is helpful to everyone.
