How to choose for uniforming a team

If the main use is representing your brand in a store, at trade fairs or events, the cotton t-shirt offers a better surface for printing the logo and is more comfortable on long days on your feet. If the team does physical activity (sports coaches, outdoor events), the technical t-shirt prevents sweat build-up and dries faster between uses.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can a technical t-shirt be customized with a logo just like a cotton one?

Yes, although the method may vary: technical polyester usually takes sublimation better, while cotton is the classic fabric for screen printing and embroidery.

Which fabric best withstands frequent washing in work uniforms?

Technical polyester holds its shape and color better after repeated washing than 100% cotton, although the latter is more breathable in direct contact with skin.
