Fabric Comparison
Combed Cotton vs Carded Cotton
How cotton is prepared changes its softness, strength and price.
| Combed Cotton | Carded Cotton | |
|---|---|---|
| Softness | Smoother, finer | Slightly coarser |
| Strength | Stronger, less pilling | More prone to pilling |
| Cost | Higher | Lower |
| Best for | Premium tees | Value basics |
Our recommendation
Use combed cotton for premium, retail-grade tees; carded is fine for value or promotional runs.
