The material used is long cotton yarn, which is considered a high-grade raw yarn. It has less fluff and is refreshing to the touch.
Long-cotton yarns are made of cotton with a single fiber length of 28 mm or longer.
Longer fibers give strength to the yarn and make it stronger.
Recognized as a highly functional material with good texture, strength, moisture absorption, and moisture release properties.
Long-cotton yarn is spun using special spinning machine technology developed over many years, and twisted approximately 2 to 3 times the number of twists of ordinary yarn to give it an even chillier feel.The material used is long cotton yarn, which is considered a high-grade raw yarn.
