Types of Fabrics for Polo Shirts
Cotton
Is a type of material that is most widely used for clothing production. This material has a smooth, soft surface and is easy to absorb sweat. This fabric will feel cool and comfortable when used. Because Indonesia has a tropical climate, choosing cotton is the right choice.

Is a type of fabric that is thicker than 20s cotton. This material is also often referred to as double net / knit. This type of fabric has the characteristic of being comfortable when used. However, this fabric has a weakness, which is easier to stretch if you wash and use it frequently. Especially if it is often pulled.
Lacoste
This fabric is the material most often used by Clothing companies in Jogjakarta. Lacoste itself comes from the name of a company in France that produces porous clothing.
Polyester
Is a general term for fabrics or textiles made using polyester yarn or fiber. Polyester fibers or fabrics are made from chemical compounds, ethylene glycol, and terephthalic acid, which are combined with polyethylene terephthalate (PET) which comes from petroleum (petroleum).
Because it is a synthetic fiber, this material will feel hot because it is not able to absorb sweat. In addition, it is very difficult to clean if you get oil or eat stains. To be comfortable when used, this material is usually mixed with viscose, linen or cotton first.

In addition, this fabric is not stiff and has a shiny color and easily absorbs sweat. This type of viscose material can be used to make casual clothes to jackets, because of its smooth and flexible texture.
