“TEE-SHIRT”
“TEE”
.
(a T-shirt is a style of ‘unisex fabric shirt’, named after the ‘t shape’ of the ‘body’ + ‘sleeves’)
(it is normally associated with ‘short sleeves’, a ’round neck line’ known as a crew neck, with no ‘collar’)
(typically made of ‘cotton textile’ in a ‘jersey knit’, it has a distinctively pliable texture compared to shirts made of ‘woven cloth’)
(the majority of ‘modern versions’ have a body made from a ‘continuously woven tube’, on a ‘circular loom’, so that the ‘torso’ has no ‘side seams’)
(the manufacture of ‘t-shirts’ has become highly automated, and may include ‘fabric cutting’ via ‘laser’ or ‘water jet’)
(the ‘t-shirt’ evolved from undergarments used in the ‘1800s’, through cutting the 1-piece union suit underwear into separate ‘top’ + ‘bottom’ garments, with the top long enough to tuck under the ‘waistband’ of the ‘bottoms’)
((‘with’ + ‘without’) buttons, they were adopted by ‘miners’ + ‘stevedores’ during the ‘late 1800s’ as a convenient covering for ‘hot environments’)
(as ‘slip-on garments’ without ‘buttons’, they originally became popular in the ‘united states’ when they were issued by the ‘american navy’ during or following the ‘spanish–american war’ of ‘1898’)
(these were a ‘crew-necked’ / ‘short-sleeved’ / ‘white cotton’ undershirt to be worn under a ‘uniform’)
(it became common for ‘sailors’ + ‘marines’ in ‘work parties’, the ‘early submarines’, and ‘tropical climates’ to remove their ‘uniform jacket’, wearing (and ‘soiling’) only the ‘undershirt’)
(they soon became popular as a ‘bottom layer of clothing’ for ‘workers’ in various ‘industries’ (including ‘agriculture’))
.
(‘t-shirts’ are…)
‘easily fitted’
‘easily cleaned’
‘inexpensive’
(…and for those reasons it became the shirt of choice for ‘young boys’))
.
(‘boy shirts’ were made in various ‘colors’ + ‘patterns’)
(by the ‘great depression’, the ‘t-shirt’ was often the ‘default garment’ to be worn when doing ‘farm’ or ‘ranch’ chores, as well as other times when modesty called for a ‘torso covering’ but conditions called for ‘lightweight fabrics’)
(a ‘V-neck T-shirt’ has a ‘V-shaped neckline’, as opposed to the ’round neckline’ of the more common ‘crew neck shirt’)
.
(‘v-necks’ were introduced so that the ‘neckline’ of the shirt does not stand out when an ‘outer shirt’ is worn over it, thus ‘reducing’ or ‘eliminating’ the ‘visible cloth’ above the ‘outer shirt’ of a ‘crew neck shirt’)
