Terms used on this page

Singles (Yarn Count)
Singles is the yarn-count system where a higher number, like 30/1, means finer, thinner yarn, and a lower number, like 18/1, means thicker, coarser yarn.
Polyester
Polyester is a synthetic, petroleum-based fiber prized for durability, quick-dry performance, and colorfastness, but prone to dye migration under screen-print inks.
Classic Fit
Classic fit is the roomy, straight-cut 'full cut' T-shirt silhouette with generous body ease and minimal waist taper, built to fit the broadest range of body types.
Ribbed Collar
A ribbed collar is a stretchy rib-knit neckband, usually 1x1 rib, whose recovery after stretching depends heavily on how much spandex is blended in.
Taped Neck (Shoulder-to-Shoulder Taping)
A taped neck is a strip of tape sewn over a garment's shoulder-to-shoulder seam to stop it from stretching out and smooth the seam against skin.
Tear-Away Label
A tear-away label is a neck or side-seam tag stitched along a single perforated line so it pulls out cleanly by hand for private labeling.
