 T-Shirt

A T-shirt is a style of shirt. A T-shirt's defining characteristic is the T shape made with the
body and sleeves. It is normally associated with short sleeves, a round neck line, and no collar.
However, it may also include long sleeves, buttons, collars, or V-necks. T-shirts are typically
made of cotton fibers, knitted together in a jersey stitch that gives a T-shirt its distinctive soft
texture. The majority of modern T-shirts have a body that is made from a continuously woven
tube, so the torso has no side seams. This is accomplished with special weaving machines called
circular looms, which produce seamless fabric for tube tops, stockings, and the like.
Conventional stitching is used for the waist band, neck band, sleeves and to close the shoulders.
The manufacture of T-shirts has become highly automated, and may include fabric cutting by
laser or water jet. T-shirt fashions include many styles for both men and women, and for all
age groups, including baby, youth, teen, adult and elderly sizes. The T-shirt evolved from
undergarments used in the 19th century, through cutting the one-piece "union suit" underwear
into separate top and bottom garments, with the top long enough to tuck under the waistband
of the bottoms. T-shirts, with and without buttons, were adopted by miners and stevedores
during the late 19th century as a convenient covering for hot environments.

 Polo Shirt

A polo shirt is a knitted, short-sleeved pullover shirt with a buttoned placket, a small opening
at the neckline, and attached collar. Polo shirts were first knit from wool jersey but soon were
knit with cotton and other soft materials. The first polo shirts were part of the uniforms worn
by polo players on teams in England and the United States starting at the beginning of the
nineteenth century. (Polo is a game in which two teams on horseback use long-handled mallets
to drive a ball into the opposing team's goal.) By the late 1920s polo shirts became the preferred
shirts of golfers, tennis players, and men sailing yachts who discovered their comfort and the
ease of movement they allowed. Tennis player Jean René Lacoste (1904–1996) even started
selling his own brand of polo shirt with a crocodile logo embroidered on the chest in honor of
his nickname, "Crocodile." As sports increased in popularity into the 1930s, polo shirts became
fashionable shirts for men watching sports or just lounging around. No matter the sport or
casual affair to which men chose to wear these sporty shirts, the shirts have always been called
polo shirts.

 Woven Shirt

A shirt is a cloth garment for the upper body (from the neck to the waist). Originally an
undergarment worn exclusively by men, it has become, in American English, a catch-all term
for a broad variety of upper-body garments and undergarments. In British English, a shirt is
more specifically a garment with a collar, sleeves with cuffs, and a full vertical opening with
buttons or snaps (North Americans would call that a "dress shirt", a specific type of "collared
shirt"). A shirt can also be worn with a necktie under the shirt collar.
