Apparel education
The right uniform fabric depends on the job, not the price list.
Cotton for comfort, poly-cotton for durability, micro polyester for heat and sweat. Here's how to choose by role.
| Role | Fabric | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Office / front desk | Cotton or cotton-rich polo, wrinkle-free | Comfort and a crisp look |
| Retail floor / hospitality | Poly-cotton polo, anti-stain, fade-free | Survives daily washing and spills |
| Field / delivery / outdoor | Micro polyester dry-fit, UPF 50+, coolant | Wicks sweat, dries fast, blocks sun |
| Warehouse / kitchen | Interlock cotton, pre-shrunk | Breathable and holds shape |
The one question that decides it
How many times a month is it washed? Under eight, cotton is fine. Over fifteen, you want a blend or a performance polyester with fade-free — or you'll be reordering in six months.
