Sustainable T-shirt from Tavitalium that won't stretch around the neck after 50 washes

22 December 2021

The ratio of persimmon peas has changed from 6:4 to 7:3, and I'm Yoshi, in charge of the Tabitarium, and I'm generally in favour of the new era of 7:3.
Do you have a particular ratio?

Compostable polyester is a material that, when mixed in moderation with natural fibres, can make up for the disadvantages of natural fibres while taking advantage of their advantages. (For more information, please visit the Tavitalium-Makuake project page )

For example, Tavitalium's cotton blend compostable polyester t-shirts (AIRPORT, CITY and PARK). For example, Tavitalium's cotton blend compostable polyester t-shirts (AIRPORT, CITY and PARK).
Cotton's gentle feel, wicking properties and matte finish are retained, while
's 45% compostable polyester blend makes the t-shirts stretchy around the neck, resistant to sagging and easy to dry, even after 50 washes. We've also mixed in 45% compostable polyester to keep the neck from stretching out after 50 washes, and to keep it dry.
If you think cotton is the only way to go for a t-shirt, this is the one for you.

 

　

Mixing with natural fibres was, of course, possible with conventional polyester.
But now polyester, despite being a synthetic fibre derived from petroleum, can be composted in a very short time.
When mixed with other sustainable materials such as natural fibres, the whole garment can be returned to the soil without sorting. It can be mixed with other sustainable materials, such as natural fibres, and returned to the soil as a whole.
As a sustainable material that can be mixed with other materials, it is now easier than ever to use and more responsive to the needs of the times.
