The higher the number of fabric for custom-made shirts, the better the texture

When it comes to customizing a shirt, the first thing that comes to mind is the example of the manufacturer who customizes the shirt. Another factor that affects the grade of the customized shirt is the selected fabric. However, when customizing a shirt, many people only refer to it as pure cotton, combed cotton, Oxford cloth, and other fabrics. In reality, they often consider consulting the number of fabrics. When selecting a shirt, do some shirt fabrics have a soft texture and some have a tough feeling, This is actually not only due to the difference in fabric, but also the tactile issue caused by different counts. The higher the count, the finer the yarn; On the contrary, the yarn becomes thicker. In the classification of yarn count for shirt fabrics, it is often divided into three main categories: high, medium, and low.

High count yarn; Generally, some shirt factories will indicate the product name and count of the fabric on the color cards they bring back from the fabric market. For high count fabrics, the yarn count generally refers to 32 or more counts. This type of yarn has fewer impurities, so the woven shirt fabric has a good luster. Medium count yarn; The yarn count is generally between 18 and 32 inches, and the quality requirements for raw cotton are average. The glossiness of the spun yarn is slightly poor, such as plain weave fabric, twill fabric, colored woven fabric, and various printed fabrics. Low count yarn; Yarn with a count of 18 or less is commonly used for weaving velvet and coarse fabrics.
