Fittees
Fashion in Cape Town

Fittees makes very comfortable and soft tees for the South African market.

All our fabric is knitted locally from cotton sourced from neighboring countries. Cotton is a very labor intensive crop and it has become hard for local farmers to be profitable. Most big cotton growers around the world have become industrialized and use machines to harvest their crops and not people. We buy our fabric from 2 different knitters and dyers in South Africa. There are very few knitters and fabric suppliers left here. Cheaper imports from the east have made it difficult for the old manufacturers to stay in business. It also allows for a great opaque print surface to screen print on. We also use very light weight Polly cotton blend fabric on our ultra-lite t-shirts. To be able to make light weight summer t-shirts we have to use a Polly cotton blended fabric. Our fleece we use on our sweaters and hoodies is also 100% cotton. This assures you have a sweater that is free from pilling and developing little fluff balls on the surface. It also prevents your inks to discolor when screen printing.
