by A few days ago, I watched a reels in my instagram account about the upsets reaction of a national club about their new jersey t-shirts. Then just this morning I see an update about the owner of that new jersey spoke up and response to the issue.
This issue comes from an Professional Coach who said that the new jersey is not that good, especially to absorb players’ sweat. People comes to react the owner reaction in an Instagram video that shows he’s pouring a tbsp of water to the jersey and shows that the jersey doing a great job to absorb the water — followed by caption that show his thanks to the coach about the critic. Yet, people thinking that his gesture was anti-critic by showing the video that equates water with sweats.
So, let’s talk about the difference between Sweat and Water, first here.
In conclusion, while both water and sweat can be absorbed by a t-shirt, the presence of salts and other substances in sweat, combined with the specific properties of the fabric, means there can be notable differences in how effectively or comfortably a t-shirt deals with each. This is why the choice of fabric is crucial for athletic wear, where managing sweat and maintaining comfort are key concerns.
Actually, what is the requirements for a jersey materials labelled as a good one? Here are some thought that peoples are concerning about ..
First, of course how quick the fabric absorbs players’ sweat — not water.
Second, the fabric that used for athlete is designed to dry quickly for athlete comfort while playing in a game. It can affect players movement during the game. So, actually this is a big point.
Third, the design. This parameter actually based on each reference, but most of people in the post agreed that their team can have better one.
This issue also exposed the brand’s track record since it’s for national team, and turns out it’s a new comers — the owner own other fashion brand too, but not specifically for jerseys.
Well, I believe there must be other specification to filled for a national team’s jersey standard in every country or globally, at least those 3 minimum points that need to be considered.
