Below 40 yarns are ordinary yarns (excluding 40 yarns), and above 40 yarns are high-count yarns. Of course, the higher the yarn count, the more expensive the cotton yarn will be. Those fabrics on Taobao that only sell for about 100 yuan are marked with the so-called 40S and 133*72 fabrics. They are basically “free upgrades”. If they can give you 128*68, they are good.

Fabric structure: For the same yarn count, twill weave has better quality than plain weave, and of course the price There will also be differences.

Dye material: low-cost fabrics. The first consideration is cost, so inferior dyes and fabrics will be used. There will be problems such as formaldehyde, pH value, color fastness, and excessive levels of decomposable aromatic amine carcinogens.

Printing and dyeing methods: Printing and dyeing are divided into paint printing and reactive printing. Nowadays, imitation printing is mentioned on the Internet. The print is still a paint print. The process is different and the price is different. The quality and cost of reactive printing and dyeing are higher than that of pigment printing.

Of course, there are other factors that determine the quality of fabrics, which are the craftsmanship in the production process. Specific technical details, such as trimming, singeing, stretching, calendering, etc., all determine the cost.

So the price difference of the same pure cotton T-shirt lies in these places.
