Feel the quality
The one thing that makes the biggest, most obvious
difference in a cotton T-shirt is the fabric you use to make it.
There are three kinds; ‘Open end’, ‘Ringspun’, ‘Combed ringspun’.
‘Ringspun’cotton integrates shorter fibres into the yarn, for a softer
hand feel and greater durability. ‘Combed ringspun yarn’ starts with
a combing process to remove shorter fibres, and results in an even
smoother, stronger yarn.
At Russell we only ever use ringspun or combed ringspun cotton
in our T-shirts.
Made in house, in Morocco
Most of our T-shirts are
made in our own modern
factory in Morocco.
It's a state-of-the-art vertical
operation that gives us both real
production flexibility and, given
its location, very competitive lead
times.
Our HD T – now even more
colourful
Last year’s launch of the
HD T to the imprint T-shirt
market was a huge success. The
luxury feel and printability of its
polycotton blend were just what
sublimation printing had been
waiting for. So this year we’ve
extended the stylish range of
marl colours even further.
