Cool Off With Linen Wear

Fabric plays an important role and determines how easily the apparel could be worn, managed and repaired. Some fabric loosely hangs on person and is good when you want loose shirts to wear on beach. Other can tear away easily but provide freedom of perspiration and odor. Depending upon how you want to wear fabric, whether you want it for long term, the quality of fabric matters.

T-shirt comes in number of fabrics such as 100% cotton, polyester and cotton plus polyester blends. Some t-shirts are organic t-shirts because of they organic cotton and natural dyes to color the fabric. Organic t-shirts are in huge fashion and are in demand because people are conscious toward their environment and want to contribute to save it.

Linen is also in popular demand when one wants to choose suits, t-shirt and pants. Linen is a natural fiber, made from Flax.  Being a vegetable fiber, it has high air porosity value. It is comfortable to wear in summers because the air can circulate inside outside making one feel cool and generates less perspiration. It is stronger than cotton. For people who indulge in heavy work and require high tensile strength fabric for longer life can go for linen shirts and if you on constant travel , you can opt for linen suits and linen pants. The good thing about linen fabric is that they can be easily washed and ironed thus you don’t have bother packing extra suits on travel because you won’t require extra laundry services.

The linen fashion is also attributed to its crispy nature. This provides a breakthrough from normal wardrobe and it is casual, glossy and experimental look. The tailors can handle the linen easily because it relatively light than cotton. It is easy move under the sewing machine and can be done into beautiful patterns within less amount of time keeping them happy with their money and efforts. Air porosity value is also good when it comes to dying them. Most of fabrics are either heavy or in synthetic nature where there is limit in number of dyes that can be used. Being a natural fabric, a number dying techniques can be used to color them. Another characteristic of natural fiber is that you would not find any sparks on friction, no skin irritation and pilling because of gradual erosion of fiber. The men’s wear is required to be more pressure resistance because of force with which they work and move. Linen is perfect for them with good abrasion resistance and textile strength.
 
You can wash them with standard detergent and hang them out in sun to dry out.  You would not find any damage such as fading, fragility and shrinking.
