Historical development
T-shirts are also called T-shirts. At first, it was underwear, but in fact it was a lapel half-open collar shirt. Later, it developed into outerwear, including two series of T-shirt sweatshirts and T-shirt shirts. There are many different opinions about the origin of the name of T-shirt. One theory is that in the 17th century, dock workers unloading tea in Annapolis, Maryland, USA all wore this short-sleeved shirt. People abbreviated "Tea" to "T" and called this shirt a T-shirt. The second theory is that in the 17th century, British sailors were ordered to add short sleeves to their vests to cover their armpit hair to avoid being unsightly. Another theory is that the sleeves and the upper body form a "T" shape, that is, the shirt has a T-shaped sewn collar, hence the name. In 1913, the US Navy stipulated that sailors should wear short-sleeved white sweat shirts with sailor collars under their work clothes. One of the reasons was to cover the sailors' dense chest hair.

Among the woven T-shirt fabrics, the first choice is the silk fabric with the characteristics of lightness, softness, and smoothness, which is particularly comfortable to wear against the skin. T-shirts made of simulated silk polyester silk or washed nylon silk, if supplemented by inlay techniques, add a special style and artistic charm to the T-shirts, and are deeply loved by young men and women.
