Cotton T-Shirts

Why the cotton ones wash better

Why the cotton ones wash better

Cotton takes dye into the fiber instead of coating it, so the color goes deeper and fades slower than it does on a printed synthetic. It also softens on a curve. A 100% cotton tee is stiffest the day it arrives and best somewhere around the tenth wash.

Synthetics do the opposite. They hold their hand from day one and never change. Neither is better. Different questions.

What is in the five

Straight 100% cotton and 100% combed cotton carry most of the group. Two pieces run 61.6% cotton with 38.4% polyester for cooling, and two more sit at 47% cotton with 47% viscose and 6% spandex for stretch and drape.

4 of the 5 carry a full size chart. Body length at size M runs 68 cm to 74 cm and shoulder runs 47 cm to 62 cm, so one size letter covers a close cut and a properly oversized one. Sizes reach XS to 3XL. Wash cold. Turn the printed ones inside out.

Heavier cotton, washed finishes

For the heavier end of the same fiber see heavyweight t-shirts. For a washed finish see vintage t-shirts.

For training, the technical side sits in quick-dry t-shirts. The whole tee range is in t-shirts.
