Sports T-shirts
A T-shirt is such a versatile thing that you can find it in the wardrobe of a person, even very far from sports. It is comfortable, practical, ideally combined with trousers, jeans, sweatpants, skirts, sundresses.
The T-shirt has long ceased to be an item of purely sports equipment. Leading design houses are constantly improving styles, developing new models, working on the quality, comfort and practicality of sports T-shirts.
Models
A sports T-shirt can be straight or slightly fitted. Tight-fitting T-shirts, as a rule, also serve as a kind of corset: they support the muscles and exert a compressive effect on the body.
Loose-fitting T-shirts do not restrict movement. They are usually made of very lightweight fabrics such as polyester.
Models from well-known global manufacturers differ from ordinary T-shirts in the presence of various kinds of useful details. For example, mesh inserts. This is not at all a decorative feature, as it might seem at first, but an element of additional ventilation.
Mesh inserts are located in places of greatest perspiration - under the arms, on the stomach, on the back.
Sports jerseys are often fitted with reflective elements. This greatly improves the safety of the athlete exercising in the dark, such as jogging in the morning and evening.
A thermal shirt is a type of clothing designed to maintain a comfortable temperature for a person. This is a great alternative to several warm sweaters or sweaters. The abundance of heavy clothing does not allow the athlete to move freely. This is especially true for fans of hockey, snowboard, skiing, skating, etc.Then thermal underwear comes to the rescue, in particular, a thermal shirt.
The thermal T-shirt fits perfectly on the figure, tightly fitting it, and in its heat-saving properties it surpasses several layers of cotton clothing.
The thermal T-shirt is different from the usual thermal underwear, designed for everyday use and constant wear. The materials for the manufacture of such T-shirts are designed for a specific load or temperature conditions in which it will be used.
These T-shirts come in several styles. May have short or long sleeves, fit well and stretch well. For their manufacture, a synthetic material with antibacterial properties is used. They are worn as an independent item or worn under other clothes.
It is a mistake to believe that thermal shirts are designed exclusively for the cold season. The material from which they are sewn has thermoregulatory properties, that is, it allows you to maintain a comfortable body temperature, both in winter and in summer. Summer models have ventilated inserts for added comfort.
Esports shirts
An e-sports team t-shirt is not only an original kind of a sports t-shirt, it is also an excellent gift for all fans and connoisseurs of computer games.
Cybersport is in many ways similar to regular sports. The same competitions, excitement, favorite teams. And each team has its own uniform with branding or sponsor logo.
Therefore, it is not surprising that every day more and more people choose stylish and recognizable T-shirts with images of their favorite teams.
Brands
Today, such well-known companies as Adidas, Nike, Reebok, Asics, etc. are engaged in the development of the design of sports t-shirts. Bosco and Demix are some of the most popular and promoted T-shirt brands.
Bosco... Russian manufacturing company, official supplier of sportswear for the Russian team at the Olympic Games.
A distinctive feature of the brand is the use of the colors of the Russian flag in the design of clothing, including sports T-shirts, as well as ornaments and patterns typical of Russian painting. The clothes are of impeccable quality and creative design.
Demix... One of the most popular brands. T-shirts of this manufacturer are characterized not only by a wide assortment and excellent quality, but also by an affordable price.
The composition of the material from which Demix T-shirts are sewn includes cotton and spandex - these materials are excellent for air permeability, stretch well and keep their shape.
Textile
The materials used for sewing sports T-shirts must meet several requirements:
- Elasticity... The shirt should stretch well and fit the body perfectly.
- Hygroscopicity... Sweat should not accumulate under the T-shirt, but come out without being caught by the fabric. This is the principle of normal thermoregulation.
- Air permeability... The body must breathe, the T-shirt must not work like a thermos.
- The fabric should be as soft and pleasant to the touch as possible. T-shirt seams should be flat and not chafing.
- Durability and color fastness. Sports T-shirt is often washed, so the fabric must withstand constant mechanical stress, while not stretching and not losing the color intensity.
It is difficult to find a material that meets all these requirements 100%. Therefore, as a rule, sports shirts are made of cotton with the addition of synthetic fabrics, for example, spandex, lycra, polyester, etc.
How to choose?
There are several important points to consider when choosing the right T-shirt:
- Material... A T-shirt made from all-natural materials may not be suitable for active sports. The composition must necessarily contain fibers of synthetic fabric;
- Workmanship;
- Resistance to deformation. It is enough to firmly pull the T-shirt at different edges and release. A good quality thing will quickly regain its shape;
- The size... T-shirt must be the same size or 1 size larger than required. This is due to the shrinkage potential of natural fabrics.
What to wear with?
If the T-shirt is part of sports equipment, then the rest of the clothing must be appropriate: sweatpants, leotards, leggings, bicycles, shorts. For shoes, you can choose sneakers or sneakers.
If the T-shirt is part of everyday clothing, then you can combine it in the same way as regular models.
Sports T-shirts go well with jeans of different styles, sports models of trousers, flared or trapezoidal skirts. It is quite possible to wear such a T-shirt under a sundress.
As shoes for a sports T-shirt, you can choose any option that suits the occasion: sandals, sandals, moccasins, slip-ons, sneakers and sneakers.
