Striped Long Underwear Manufacturer in Vietnam

What does Long Johns mean? Long Johns were first introduced into England in the 17th century. How two-piece long underwear began to be called long johns is rather a mystery. Some people believe that the John in the name refers to John L. Sullivan, a boxer who frequently wore long john bottoms, or long drawers tucked into his socks and shoes. This theory on the naming has not been proven, but seems the most viable explanation for origin.

What are Long Johns used for?

Long johns were first used as loungewear but then later became popular as sleepwear. They are two-piece garments worn underneath clothing to provide an extra layer of warmth. Either men or women may wear them at night as pajamas. Children also wore long johns as sleepwear, usually made out of cotton and polyester. Skiers wear long johns to stay warm on the windy chair lifts.

What fabric is Long Johns made from?

Long johns are made from cotton yarns knitted with waffle structure. This waffle fabric has become synonymous with “thermal fabric.” If the cotton used is soft, Long Johns made with waffle fabric because the household favourite for lounging around on a cold day. Inferior fabrics make Long Johns itchy and uncomfortable. Like thermal underwear, long johns can be made of synthetic fabrics and wool.

Synthetic polyester blends can include nylon, polypropylene, spandex or rayon. These fabrics are soft and light, easy-to-care-for and abrasion- and wrinkle-resistant. Fabrics that include spandex offer comfortable stretch. However, odors may build if worn repeatedly on multiday outings. Synthetics are also potentially vulnerable to staining.

Merino wool has virtually replaced traditional wool thanks to its soft, non-itchy fibers. The moisture evaporated within the fabric keeps skin cool and stable your body temperature. Also, breathable wool fibers can buffer skin from air heated by the sun the same way they can trap warmed air and keep it close to skin in cool conditions. But it’s not as fast drying as synthetics and it is also more expensive than synthetic fabric.

Are you looking for a socially compliant garment factory in Vietnam?

Social Compliant Factory is term that comes up a lot when discussing garment manufacturing overseas. There are many types of social compliant certification that can be confusing.

SA 8000 is a social certification standard for decent workplaces in all kind of industrial sectors. Companies who comply SA 8000 have to adopt policies and procedures that protect the basic human rights of workers. SA 8000 main office is in New York City, USA.

Thai Son S.P is a socially compliant garment factory in Vietnam. Our SA 8000 certification is certified by The Bureau Veritas Vietnam and renewed in July 2015.

In 1977, the Foreign Trade Association was founded in Belgium. From this group of companies BSCI was created and is headquartered in Belgium.

What is Target certification?

Target certification makes sure everything Target sources is produced ethically and in accordance with local laws, human rights and environmental standards. Target headquarters are based in Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA.

What is FAMA certification?

Currently, prospective licensees in North America and Southeast Asia must be qualified under this assessment tool in order to move forward with their licensing agreement. Disney continues to look to expand this program to all regions in an effort to help ensure that prospective licensees have the tools necessary to support Disney’s mission of fostering safe, inclusive and respectful workplaces wherever Disney-branded products are produced.
