RETRO-READY FOR THE FASHION-CONSCIOUS

Did you know that Fruit of the Loom manufactures most of its garments at its purpose-built Morocco factory? It’s one of the many reasons why Fruit of the Loom is trusted amongst resellers and provides some of our best-selling styles.

We, and decorators, love Fruit of the Loom styles on so many levels:

• Fabrics developed specifically for decoration.

• Fine-knit gauge for enhanced printability.

• Sweatshirts with a 100% cotton face for better decoration results.

• Products thoroughly tested for quality and pilling performance.

• Colour and sizing consistency from year to year, batch to batch.

• Colours and styles which match across men’s, women’s and kids’ ranges.

These benefits allow decorators to purchase confidently, knowing that they can provide their customers with consistency, season after season.You may be familiar with Fruit of the Loom’s classic styles, but have you seen what’s new for 2023? Read on to find out about the exciting new additions.

NEW LONG SLEEVE T

Whenever short sleeves are insufficient, this addition fits the bill perfectly as a heavyweight layer or casual wardrobe addition.

RINGSPUN COTTON

We are expecting a signitifcant uptake in this style. It’s super-soft yet highly durable, making it
a decorator’s dream to work with, thanks to its ringspun cotton construction. Ringspun cotton
is produced by continuously spinning, twisting and thinning cotton fibres, resulting in long, soft and
strong strands. T-shirts created this way are built for longevity, due to the ultra-soft and durable nature
of the fabric.

IDEAL FOR:


• Retail

• Licensing

• Tourism applications…and more!

NEW SOFT-TONE COLOURS

According to Pantone, soft pastel tones will feature heavily throughout 2023, suggesting that these
ultra-calming tints and tones exude a quiet presence.

Fruit of the Loom has released softer tones across Iconic Ts, sweatpants and sweatshirts, just in time for spring and summer.


Check out new colours like Mineral Blue, Powder Rose, Classic Olive and Natural, available in:
Classic 80/20 set-in sweatshirt (SS200), Classic 80/20 hooded sweatshirt (SS224), Classic 80/20 raglan sweatshirt (SS270), Iconic 195 ringspun premium T (SS422), Iconic 150 T (SS430) and

WHAT’S YOUR DECORATION STYLE?

No matter how you choose to decorate and personalise garments, Fruit of the Loom always returns quality results.


DTG (DIRECT-TO-GARMENT)


100% ringspun cotton provides the ideal surface for DTG printing. Try the new Iconic 195 ringspun premium long sleeve T (SS434) to achieve maximum colour vibrancy in your print.


EMBROIDERY


Any materials that are tightly woven are an excellent choice for embroiderers. Such fibres create a solid surface to support dense and complex patterns. Select the Iconic 150 T (SS430), made from ringspun cotton and available in new tonal colours – a great choice!


DTF (DIRECT-TO-FILM)

DTF printing can take on many fabrics, including cotton and polyester blends. Try the 65/35 Polo (SS402) or Classic 80/20 hooded sweatshirt (SS224). Both garments will ring out the vibrant colours we love to see from a DTF application.
