Sports T-shirt

Classification

Sports T-shirts are generally divided into four categories:tight T-shirts, fitted T-shirts, slim T-shirts, and oversize T-shirts.

Tight-fitting T-shirts need to have excellent elasticity and fit to ensure close fit to the body and provide sufficient support and comfort. Generally, more than 10% spandex content is required;

Fitted T-shirts usually require fabrics with good resilience and a moderate fit, but are slightly looser than tight-fitting T-shirts and only require about 5% spandex content;

Slim-fitting T-shirts usually have a slightly slim cut to highlight the body lines, but are not too close-fitting. They are usually made of light, breathable, moisture-absorbent and sweat-wicking fabrics, such as 180gsm cotton;

Oversize T-shirts usually have a loose cut and casual style, focusing on comfort and casual style. The weight is generally above 220gsm.
