Fabric
Constructed from a poly cotton blended jersey knit, this fabric strategically combines polyester's tensile strength, shrink resistance, and moisture management with cotton's natural softness, breathability, and comfortable hand feel. The medium-weight knit offers excellent drape, superior colorfastness, and dimensional stability after repeated laundering — critical performance attributes for uniforms and activewear in frequent rotation.
