MATERIAL GUIDE
ELASTANE
A stretchy yarn mixed with cotton for greater comfort.
COMBED COTTON
With long fibers. So called because the yarn has been combed to remove impurities and shorter fibers, making the material smoother and stronger. Perfect for digital printing.
DENIM
A high quality, tightly woven fabric. Denim usually comprises a blue warp
and a cream or white weft. Its twill weave forming diagonal lines makes it visually recognisable.
SOFTSHELL
Material consisting of three layers: the outer layer
is neoprene-based with added elastane, the inside layer is a micro fleece, with a technical layer in-between.
The material is insulated for warmth, water-resistant, breathable and wind-proof.
FLEECE
Heavy jersey knit with polyester and cotton. Its inside surface has been brushed making
it warm and soft.
TWILL
Sergé cotton or cotton mix with thin, oblique ribs.
RINGSPUN
Our T-shirts are knitted with superior quality Ringspun making them soft, pleasant to wear and beautiful-looking – the European quality answers to American knitwear using open-end cotton, more loosely-woven and less sophisticated.
TEXTILE ALLOWANCE
For promotional wear, European standards are + or – 5% for weight and size.
JERSEY
This basic knitting makes the material soft, strong and supple with a smooth surface ideal for all sorts of printing.
OXFORD
Soft, very strong material used for shirts. Coloured yarns are used for the warp while white yarns make the weft, emphasizing the plaiting effect.
