How to choose satisfactory T-shirt fabric

Selecting the ideal fabric for T-shirts depends on factors such as comfort, durability, moisture management, and suitability for printing. 

Here are some commonly used fabrics:

1. Cotton:

• Comfort: Soft, breathable, and gentle on the skin, making it a popular choice for everyday wear.

• Durability: Generally durable, though it can shrink and fade over time.

• Moisture Management: Absorbs moisture, which may lead to longer drying times.

• Print Compatibility: Excellent for vibrant and long-lasting prints.

2. Polyester:

• Comfort: Lightweight but less breathable than cotton; some individuals may find it less comfortable.

• Durability: Highly durable, resistant to wrinkles, shrinking, and stretching.

• Moisture Management: Moisture-wicking and quick-drying, suitable for athletic wear.

• Print Compatibility: Suitable for certain dye sublimation techniques that can achieve vivid colors and designs.

3. Cotton-Polyester Blends:

• Comfort: Combine the softness of cotton with the durability of polyester.

• Durability: More durable than pure cotton and less prone to shrinking.

• Moisture Management: Offer balanced moisture absorption and quick-drying properties.

• Print Compatibility: Generally good, though the specific blend ratio can affect print quality.

4. Tri-Blends (Cotton, Polyester, and Rayon):

• Comfort: Extremely soft with a flattering drape, offering a premium feel.

• Durability: Good durability, though the addition of rayon can make the fabric more delicate.

• Moisture Management: Balanced moisture-wicking and breathability.

• Print Compatibility: Suitable for various printing techniques, though the fabric's texture can influence the final print appearance.
