Natural fibers: include plant fibers (such as cotton, hemp), animal fibers (such as wool, silk), and mineral fibers (such as asbestos).
Chemical fibers: include artificial fibers (such as viscose fiber) and synthetic fibers (such as polyester and nylon).
Pure cotton: It offers excellent moisture absorption and breathability, a soft touch, and superior thermal insulation.
Hemp: A natural plant fiber with stronger water absorption, providing a cool wear, but prone to wrinkling and rough fabric texture.
Fur: Derived from the hair of animals, primarily wool and cashmere, it offers advantages such as warmth, lightness, no dampness when worn, and soft comfort.
Silk: A natural fiber from the cocoon of the silkworm, silk is a high-end fabric known for its fine, smooth, and soft texture. It is durable, elastic, and capable of absorbing sweat and moisture from the human body.
Artificial fibers: Primarily composed of viscose and acetate fibers, their advantages include softness, comfort, breathability, and thermal insulation, providing warmth in winter and coolness in summer with a pleasant tactile feel; the drawbacks are susceptibility to wrinkling.
Other common materials include polyester (polyethylene terephthalate), acrylic (synthetic wool), polypropylene, spandex, and others.
