Product Insights
The Micro-Waffle T-Shirt comfort Fit by Le 31 is a breathable, in-stock tee priced at 39 CAD. Its micro-waffle knit offers superior breathability over standard jersey, while the textured fabric diffuses pilling for a cleaner look. To maintain its loose fit, it requires cold washing, air-drying, and no fabric softener.
- Breathability
Micro-waffle knit is more breathable than standard smooth jersey t-shirts.
Why this is supported
The micro-waffle texture creates air pockets that enhance airflow, making it more breathable than a standard smooth jersey t-shirt.
How does the micro-waffle texture affect breathability compared to a standard smooth jersey t-shirt?This claim is verified by the brand's own Q&A, which affirms the breathability advantage.
- Care
Cold wash, air-dry, and no fabric softener to preserve the loose fit.
Why this is supported
The research warns that fabric softeners and dryer sheets can stiffen the elastane, causing the neckline and hem to droop:
Elastane in the stretch jersey is vulnerable to the coating residue left by fabric softeners and dryer sheets, which stiffens the elastic and causes the neckline and hem to droop
Durability and care of organic cotton stretch jersey — fabric_softener_risk. In addition, washing in cold water and air-drying prevents the organic cotton from shrinking and protects the elastane from thermal degradation:
Washing in cold water and air-drying prevents the organic cotton fibers from shrinking (cotton can shrink up to 5% in the first hot wash) and protects the elastane from thermal degradation, maintaining the shirt's intended loose, dropped-shoulder silhouette
Durability and care of organic cotton stretch jersey — cold_water_laundering. Following these care instructions preserves the garment's intended comfortable fit.
- Pilling
Micro-waffle texture diffuses the look of pilling, maintaining a cleaner appearance.
Why this is supported
The micro-waffle texture's three-dimensional surface
diffuses the appearance of small pills and fuzz that typically accumulate on flat jersey through friction
Durability and care of organic cotton stretch jersey — micro_waffle_texture_and_pilling, allowing the shirt to maintain a fresh, clean look longer.
