Cotton: The comfortable basics
Cotton is a natural fiber, soft and breathable, which is why it is the common choice for T-shirts and tank tops.
In the men's V-neck T-shirt, for example, the fabric is soft, breathable single jersey cotton. Single jersey is a smooth, lightweight knit, and this shirt can be printed on and embroidered.
In some products the cotton is ring-spun, as stated in the product description, and in some it is blended with another fiber. Always check the exact composition on the product page.
For cotton shirts in the catalog: Short Sleeve Shirts.
Rib: A knit that holds the body
Rib is not a fiber but a type of knit, and it gives the fabric a texture of fine ribs and stretch. You will see the name mostly on tank tops and neckbands.
