How is a long-sleeved t-shirt different from a sweater?
Long sleeve t-shirts are generally thinner and looser than most jerseys. While jumpers tend to be made from materials such as wool or other knits, long-sleeved t-shirts are more often made from materials such as cotton or modal.
There is also the difference that t-shirts with long sleeves generally have a v-shaped or round neck, as this is the most normal for t-shirts. Sweaters, on the other hand, also have the option of having a high collar, as this better protects against the cold.
In general, however, there is not much difference between a jersey and a long-sleeved t-shirt, and many people use the words interchangeably. If you would rather have a thicker jersey, then you can look at our selection ofknitwear for ladies.
Why buy long sleeve t-shirts?
There are many reasons why you might choose a long-sleeved t-shirt. First of all, the longer sleeves can protect more against the cold than shorter sleeves. This is most useful for cozying up at home in the cold months, as a normal t-shirt is sometimes not enough if you are cold. A t-shirt with long sleeves can also help in the hot months if you want to avoid getting sunburned on your arms. This could be, for example, if you go to a barbecue on a day with high UV radiation, and you think you are expected to wear a short-sleeved t-shirt.
In addition to being practical, long-sleeved t-shirts also look nice and are suitable for wearing under jackets and cardigans. Furthermore, they can be matched with boatsjeans,shortsandskirtsto achieve a stylish look.
Which size you want is of course also important. Our range includes long-sleeved blouses for women in sizes XS-2XL.
Which material should I choose?
When talking about material choices for t-shirts, there are many options. However, our women's long-sleeved blouses are primarily made from either cotton or modal.
Cotton
Cotton is a perfect material for t-shirts with long sleeves. Not only is it soft and comfortable, but it is also highly absorbent, making it ideal for hot summer days. Also, it's a breathable fabric, so it won't make you feel sweaty and uncomfortable. Cotton is also durable, meaning your t-shirt will last longer. And last but not least, the material has a lower price than many other fabric variants. A women's cotton long-sleeve t-shirt is perfect for any occasion.
Modal
Modal has many of the same benefits as cotton. First, it is extremely soft and comfortable to wear.. Second, modal is a highly absorbent fabric, which means it helps keep you cool and comfortable, even in hot weather. Third, modal is a durable fabric that can withstand repeated washings without losing its shape or color.
Which color and style should I choose?
It's entirely up to you which style of long-sleeved t-shirt you want. With us you can find basic, striped and colored versions.
Basic long-sleeved t-shirt for women
A basic long-sleeved t-shirt is characterized by not having a print or pattern. This results in a neutral look that goes well with several outfits. The basic look has become popular especially among women as it is a more minimalist look, which is one of the trends of the time. The plain long-sleeved t-shirts go with almost everything.
Striped long sleeve t-shirt for women
Stripes are nice and it's perfect for anyone who wants a little pattern on their t-shirt, without having anything too special. Stripes are a very neutral pattern that still gives something extra to a basic look.
The color plays a role
Whether you choose a basic or striped t-shirt, the color must be right.
If you want to use a t-shirt in the summer, you can consider choosing light colors. Light colors reflect sunlight more than dark colors, which instead absorb it. In the summer, you will therefore feel warmer in a black t-shirt compared to a white one.
If you need a t-shirt to wear under a sweater or jacket, then the color is less important, but neutral colors can be a good choice here.
If you are the type who loves color, then blouses in yellow, pink or blue might be more your style.
The choice is ultimately yours, and you can match colors exactly as you wish.
