In the hot summer, everyone likes to wear cooler knitted T-shirts, and the cool feeling of knitted T-shirts with different fabrics is different, and the price is certainly different. Let’s have a comprehensive understanding of the fabrics of knitted T-shirts and which of these knitted T-shirt fabrics is the best.
What are the knitted T-shirt fabrics
Cotton fabric:
This should be the most common fabric on the market. Pure cotton fabric is really close to the skin, breathable and sweat absorbing. Now it is said to be environmentally friendly, and she is also a very environmentally friendly fabric. It is said that pure cotton fabric is easy to wrinkle and has no elasticity. In fact, there are many processes to make up for its shortcomings, so the same pure cotton knitted T-shirts will feel different. If they are not elastic, they are not pure cotton knitted T-shirts~
Mercerized cotton fabric:
As mentioned above, mercerized cotton is actually made from cotton through special processing. This kind of fabric is a very high-quality knitted fabric, which not only retains the advantages of pure cotton, but also improves the gloss and feels softer. It also makes up for the lack of elasticity of pure cotton and becomes very elastic and sagging, making the wearer look more tasteful~
Saccharified cotton fabric:
This is also a kind of pure cotton. It is the saccharification treatment of pure cotton (a high-tech environmental protection process). The specific process can not be understood, but it should be known that after the process treatment, the saccharified cotton not only has the natural matte luster of pure cotton, but also has straightness and enhanced air permeability. It is very suitable for men. It is also a high-grade fabric like mercerized cotton.
Lycra cotton (high quality spandex) fabric:
This is probably rarely heard, but when I talk about its characteristics, we should know what it is like. It has hanging property, crease recovery function, good hand feeling, close fitting, prominent under the body, elastic and suitable for close fitting clothes. How do you feel like you have something similar? Go and see the ingredients. Maybe it is. When it comes to body shaping, I think it should be women’s clothes ~ in fact, it is not. It has been used in men’s knitted T-shirts in the past two years
Nylon fabric:
If you don’t know the above fabric, you shouldn’t know this one now. In fact, this fabric is mainly used to make casual clothes, which is the most ideal material for fashion. The cloth looks shiny and bright, and the feel is also very smooth and full. It belongs to chemical fiber, which is very elastic. If mixed with cotton, it will feel softer, but it is very non absorbent and easy to deform~
Polyester cotton fabric:
This is a blend of polyester and cotton. It is not only not easy to deform, but also very wrinkle resistant, but it is especially easy to fuzz 1 ball and feel hard. Naturally, it can’t compare with pure cotton. It doesn’t absorb sweat or breathe. It’s very stuffy! This kind of fabric is not recommended!
What is the best material for knitted T-shirts
pure cotton:
First of all, let’s talk about knitted T-shirts made of pure cotton. Most shopping guides will tell you that their knitted T-shirts are pure cotton, including a treasure, which will also indicate the word “pure cotton”. So is it true? We can verify it as long as we know the shortcomings of pure cotton knitted T-shirts. It’s easy to wrinkle, which should be known by everyone. In fact, it’s easy to shrink! If you reach these two points, you can admit that what the merchant said is true~
Of course, it also has many advantages. It has good skin affinity, good air permeability and good moisture absorption. If you don’t pursue the brand, the pure cotton knitted T-shirt should be the most cost-effective choice in the ordinary budget~
polyester cotton:
This should be very common. It is not easy to deform or wrinkle. The feel of the fabric is hard, and the comfort is not as good as that of pure cotton, but it is also soft and thick. If it’s 65% cotton knitted T-shirt fabric, it’s acceptable, but if it’s 35% cotton, don’t ask for it. It’s uncomfortable and pilling. Why waste money~
Combed cotton:
Many knitted T-shirts are said to be pure cotton, but the fabric is marked with combed cotton, including many socks. In fact, there is no problem, because it is really a kind of pure cotton. In fact, you don’t need to know much about the process, but you should know that it is better than ordinary cotton. It can make the knitted T-shirt more high-grade texture, softer, more comfortable, more washable and durable, and have a certain gloss~
Mercerized cotton:
In fact, it is also a kind of pure cotton, but it adds a mercerization process, and the specific treatment methods are not mentioned. However, the fabric treated in this way not only contains the characteristics of ordinary pure cotton knitted T-shirts, but also has better hand feel, higher comfort, and improved gloss, which is not easy to wrinkle and deform. It can be said to be a noble in cotton~
Cotton and hemp:
Cotton linen knitted T-shirt will be cooler than pure cotton knitted T-shirt in high temperature summer, which should be known, because its heat dissipation is five times that of wool! It has the advantages of good air permeability, no pilling, anti-static, skin friendly and so on. And radiation protection! Research shows that as long as 20% flax is added to the fabric, it can prevent 80% radiation. So it is very suitable for white-collar workers, women who are pregnant or ready to give birth and men who are not pregnant ~ of course, those who like to play mobile phones and computers can also start~
Modal:
Modal fabric should be no stranger. Its comfort is really high ~ the fabric is particularly soft and smooth, and the cloth surface is also shiny. It is a natural mercerized fabric ~ but there are also a few people who are not suitable for use, because although it has no harmful substances, it may be allergic because it is processed by chemical fiber. Moreover, this kind of fabric can pursue comfort, but it is easy to deform~
Spandex:
This is rarely heard, but you will know what it is like when I talk about its characteristics ~ it is particularly elastic, static free and comfortable. Compared with ordinary knitted T-shirts, its creases are easy to recover and particularly highlight the figure. It not only retains the advantages of cotton, but also improves the disadvantage that pure cotton is inelastic and easy to deform, that is, it is easy to fade in the sun. But it’s also a popular fabric in knitted T-shirts in recent years ~ it’s very worth buying~
