OUR JOURNEY

HI, OUR NAMES ARE JULIANA AND NOAH, AND WE ARE THE OWNERS OF FOXTENDZ-WE ARE ONE.

AS MY BROTHER AND I GOT STARTED, WE WANTED TO BRING A HIGH QUALITY PRODUCT WITH AN ATTRACTIVE LOGO TO OUR CUSTOMER'S. DURING OUR SEARCH OF DIFFERENT FABRIC'S, VISITING DIFFERENT CITIES, AND MEETING NEW PEOPLE, WE ALSO WANTED TO HAVE FUN DURING THIS PROCESS.

AS OUR JOURNEY BROUGHT US BACK TO THE DRAWING BOARD MANY TIME'S, GOING THROUGH COLOURS, MATERIAL'S, FABRICS, AND OF COURSE, THE ODD BROTHER AND SISTER ARGUMENT, WE DECIDED ON A BRAND, LOGO'S, MATERIAL'S, FULFILLMENT CENTER, AND THAT IS HOW OUR COMPANY WAS BORN.

FABRIC SINGLES

ONE OUR CONCERN'S DURING OUR PROCESS WAS THE LIFESPAN OF THE SHIRT, WOULD IT DAMAGE EASILY, WILL IT FADE QUICK, HOW MANY SINGLE'S TO CHOOSE FROM, AND DO WE USE A PRE-SHRUNK FABRIC. AS KIDS, WE HAVE THAT FAVOURITE SHIRT, OR WE GET DIRTY EASILY, TO AN ADULT, WHERE THE LOOK AND FEEL IS IMPORTANT. WE ALSO DON'T LIKE OUR SHIRT'S SHRINKING IN THE DRYER.

OUR FABRIC'S AND SHIRT'S ARE BETWEEN 30-34 SINGLES. A SINGLE IS USED TO DEFINE THE FINENESS OF EACH STRAND OF COTTON THREAD USED TO WEAVE YOUR SHIRT. A HIGHER NUMBER MEANS A FINER THREAD, SO IN TURN A SOFTER, FINER FABRIC IS CREATED WITH BETTER DRAPE/HANG – IT BASICALLY FLOWS BETTER AND SITS NICER ON
YOUR BODY.

DID YOU KNOW TODAY'S T-SHIRT FABRICS ARE AROUND 18-20 SINGLES.

THE CONSTRUCTION QUALITY

WHAT TO LOOK FOR

STITCHING

THE FIRST THING THAT YOU SHOULD CHECK WHEN LOOKING AT THE T-SHIRT IS THE STITCHING. THE STITCHING SHOULD BE TIGHT AND NEAT SO THAT IT DOESN'T COME UNDONE. IF YOU SEE THAT THERE ARE ANY HOLES IN THE STITCHING, THIS IS NOT A GOOD SIGN.

FINISH EDGES

IF THE FINISHED EDGE COMES OUT, IT'S A SIGN OF POOR QUALITY.

POORLY SEWN

IF YOU PLACE THE SHIRT FLAT ON A SURFACE AND THE SHIRT DOESN’T LAY FLAT AND ALWAYS LOOK A BIT TWISTED, IT IS MOST LIKELY POORLY SEWN. ALSO, YOU SHOULD AVOID A T-SHIRT WITH UNEVEN SEAMS.

THE COLLAR

IT IS IMPORTANT THAT THE COLLAR IS WELL-STRUCTURED. IN CASE IT FALLS FORWARD WHILE YOU'RE TRYING IT ON, THAT’S A SIGN OF BAD QUALITY BECAUSE IT WON'T HOLD ITS SHAPE. THAT'S WHY IN HIGHER-QUALITY T-SHIRTS.

DROP & STRETCH TEST

THE DRAP TEST IS AN EFFECTIVE METHOD FOR CHECKING T-SHIRT QUALITY. IF YOU WANT TO PERFORM THE DROP TEST, YOU JUST HAVE TO TAKE OFF THE SHIRT AND HANG IT ON A HANGER. PLACE YOUR HANDS UNDERNEATH THE SHIRT THEN LIFT THE BOTTOM OF THE SHIRT (THE PART WHERE THE ARMS ARE) UP, AND LET GO. IF THE SHIRT FALLS INTO SHAPE SMOOTHLY WITHOUT WRINKLES, YOU'VE GOT A HIGH-QUALITY SHIRT. IF THE SHIRT FOLDS BADLY OR WRINKLES EASILY, IT'S NOT WORTH KEEPING.

YOU CAN STRETCH THE CLOTH AND TEST IT TO SEE IF IT RETURNS TO ITS ORIGINAL STATE. IF IT DOESN'T RETURN TO A PLACE, THEN IT WILL LIKELY LOSE ITS SHAPE QUICKLY. BY STRETCHING THE CLOTH, YOU CAN ALSO SEE WHETHER THE TREADS ARE EVEN OR NOT.

YOU CAN CREATE A BIT OF FRICTION BY RUBBING THE FABRIC TOGETHER FOR A COUPLE OF SECONDS. IF YOU SEE SIGNS THAT FIBERS MAY BREAK, THEN THAT IS PROBABLY NOT A GOOD SIGN AND YOU SHOULD AVOID THAT T-SHIRT. ANOTHER GOOD STRETCH TEST IS BY TAKING YOUR SHIRT, AND STRETCHING IT ABOUT A FOOT FROM A LIGHT SOURSE. IF YOU SEE A LOT OF LIGHT COME THROUGH THE SHIRT, THEN IT IS NOT WORTH KEEPING.
