Make Your Shirts Perform


Performance T-Shirts & Sportswear Are Preferred

There is no doubt that performance fabrics are here to stay. Their popularity greatly increased a decade ago, but not everybody jumped in. Most consumers resisted mainly because of the higher cost initially and the unfamiliarity. But the fabric has evolved and is immensely popular for use as everything from running shirts to uniforms. We have seen the continued growth over the years and it's undeniable. For instance, participant t-shirts for running events used to be ordered as 100% cotton or 50/50 blend in nearly every case. But in 2016, we are seeing custom t-shirt orders for running events lean towards performance fabrics, with 70% of the orders being 100% polyester.

What is Performance Fabric?

In nearly every case for customized apparel, your performance fabric will be made of 100% polyester. The fabrics are engineered to provide maximum comfort and protection for active and excessive use. Fabrics are knitted in a variety of thicknesses, with an emphasis on breathability, stretchability and moisture wicking properties.

Moisture-wicking fabrics are made to move moisture away from the body to the fabric surface where it can evaporate quickly. Drywicking is a new variation that improves evaporation even more by using a smart two-tiered fabric with the outer layer being a natural fabric, which is more absorbent, drawing moisture away from the body for greater evaporation, leaving the skin dry.

Thermal properties are also a major factor, with fabrics having a wider range of comfort through temperature fluctuations - staying cooler in the heat and warmer in the cold. Additionally, performance fabrics are treated with a number of coatings, the most common being anti-microbial, anti-odor, wrinkle resistance, stain resistance and UV blocking.

What Performance Products Can You Customize?

Activewear of every type is available in performance fabrics, with new styles entering the market every year. All of these performance apparel products can be customized with screen-printing or embroidery. Performance fabrics are a natural for sports apparel, but are also extremely popular for use as company uniforms.
