Research shows enhanced air permeability and mechanical properties in t-shirts made with recycled cotton, suggesting a sustainable alternative.

Fabric made with recycled cotton from spinning waste maintains thermal conductivity while improving air permeability.
Testing across blend ratios of 70:30, 80:20, and 90:10 showed varying properties in knitted t-shirts and their durability.
Grey fabrics revealed superior bursting strength while finished fabrics excelled in air permeability after processing phases.
Implications highlight that value-added recycling can deliver high-performance garments without fully relying on virgin cotton.

Ramzan et al. (2025) studied this question.
