TheT-shirt Factory
Tshared starts with a on demand luxury tee, with a 5 year gurantee this makes us aware to use the best materials, and only work with the very best clothing factories.
Our T-shirt factory is located a few miles of Lisabon, in the North of Portugal. We visit the facility
often and have forged a strong relationship with the owner John, who has
been in the garment industry for over 40 years.
How did we met?
In our
initial phases of production, We were impressed by the
workmanship here and the environment created for the factory workers. We visit
this facility three times a week to check up on production and quality control
pieces.
The Materials
Our
company would not exist today without the support of our jersey cotton
supplier. We met them in the early days of founding the company and have stuck
with them since.
Our
women’s T-shirt fabric is a 40-single yarn—a term to denote the weight of the
fabric—made of 100% Supima cotton. All of the cotton is grown directly in India and shipped to the mill.
Our
men’s T-shirts use a heavier 30-single cotton. The fibers are imported from
India and then handled in our mill.
About
the Owner
When you
look for the owner of our tee factory John, you won’t find him hidden away
in an air-conditioned office. His work space is right on the factory floor in
the middle of all the action. John's openness translates into everything he
does, from overseeing production to buying us lunch whenever we stop by—and
it’s one of the main reasons we have such a strong relationship with the
factory.
