For your comfort, our goal is to make a t-shirt for you that
is soft and breathable.
The sense of touch is a miraculous sense that covers the
entire body. A t-shirt comes into contact with just under half of your sense of
touch.
FABRIC
So we search for softest feeling fabric. Even though polyesters are soft, we’re not
interested in wearing recycled water bottles. Cotton/Modal is really soft but a
bit too silky for our tastes. For breathability, we wanted to stay with cotton. But with cotton, you often getting
pilling. You may have seen these small
balls of fiber on your t-shirts. This is
caused by loose fibers pushing out of the cloth. This happens more with short fibers because
there are more end fibers that work their way of out of the cloth. One technique to remove these is with an
enzyme wash. Enzymes are actually living organisms that “eat” away the
cellulose, removing excess fibers. It’s
used on t-shirts to simulate multiple washes.
Not to worry though, by the time you get the shirt, “most” of the
enzymes a gone. So what about a long
staple cotton? We found the solution in Supima®
cotton. Supima® cotton is a long staple
cotton grown in the USA. It leaves the
knitted fabric feeling naturally soft.
STYLE
What about style? Want a t-shirt that’s more than just a
shirt to do chores in? Well so did we.
One that is stylish enough for your jacket, and can be worn at a restaurant or
club. One that is fitted in the chest
and tapered at the waist. One that is ideal
for men with an athletic build and is not constraining. We’ve added style to the t-shirt by opening
up the neckline and using a cross cut fabric to give the neck line a finished
look. For the more conservative types,
we also offer a 1x1 rib neckline.
CONFIDENCE BUILDER
It’s interesting how what we wear affects our attitude. If you’re not comfortable in the clothes you’re
wearing it shows in your behavior. The
feel of your clothes can also make you confident. Getting on that nice rental tuxedo for a
wedding makes you “feel” awesome. We’ll
our soft Supima Cotton t-shirts can also make you feel awesome. It’s that feeling why we might spend $1000 on
a suit rather a few hundred dollars. Or
spend $35 on a t-shirt instead of 4 for $20.
All the COLLECTR t-shirts are manufactured in the USA.
The cotton is grown here in the Southerwestern parts of the
USA, spun into yarn in the Southeast, then knitted into fabric and sewn into
t-shirts is Los Angeles, California for the highest level of quality control we
can achieve. The COLLECTR t-shirts enhance
the feel, softness, drape ability creating more luxurious t-shirt.
