100% Cotton Dress Shirts
The name itself explains it all: 100% cotton dress shirts means that the dress shirts do not have any other fibre apart from cotton. The difference with cotton blends and 100 % cotton is that the former uses a blend of certain fibres with the cotton itself to accomplish a certain purpose, whereas the latter is strictly made from cotton without the presence of any incorporations. Countries like America, India and Africa have seen their economy rise due to trade of this fibre as part of their export market.
The process involves spinning the thread or yarn to make it a bit more spacious and thus breathable, especially in the case of blue dress shirts. People that are exposed to more heat should wear cotton dress shirt, but this does not mean that this type of shirt cannot be worn at any time of the year. The advantage with this type of fabric it that one sweats less and the sweat is quickly absorbed in the dress shirt due to the ventilation that the present. The intersecting warps and wefts create points in which the air can flow freely. The overall body temperature is regulated when one uses dress shirts made or pure cotton and a certain sense of comfort can also be felt as well.
Though they may seem the same at first sight there are a few indications and signs to look for to be able to tell the difference between the a 100 % cotton shirt and one that has other fibres apart from cotton. Touching is usually the fist sign that will differentiate a pure cotton shirt from a cotton blend. Another differentiating factor is that pure cotton is a lot more resistant than cotton and polyester blends when washed. Pure cotton has a lot more free spaces , thus making it a lot more absorbent and in addition to this is can withstand up to 25 times its own weight. Even after washing pure cotton shirts for years, they do not change their form as opposed to cotton blend shirts that change form quite quickly.
