shirts.wiki: Garment Base Documentation

shirts.wiki garments begin as standardized blank apparel units acquired through wholesale distribution channels prior to modification.

Current primary base model:

900 – Adult Unisex Light Weight Deluxe Tee

Specifications provided by the distributor include:

  • 145 GSM
  • 7.25 OZ/LY
  • 100% cotton
  • 30/S fine ringspun yarn
  • tubular construction
  • shoulder taping
  • flat lock stitching at hem and sleeves
  • sizes XS–2XL

Manufacturing origin: Bangladesh

Material Selection Conditions

The selected garment base was chosen due to a combination of:

  • softness
  • print compatibility
  • predictable structure
  • low failure rate
  • stable inventory access
  • acceptable economic survivability

The system does not currently manufacture garments independently.

Instead, it modifies existing industrial apparel objects already circulating through global textile infrastructure.

Structural Characteristics

The fabric weight is considered lightweight but operationally stable.

Thin enough for regular wear.

Manufacturing Context

The blank garments are manufactured in Bangladesh prior to importation and redistribution through Canadian wholesale channels.

Like most contemporary apparel products, the garments exist within large-scale international manufacturing systems shaped by:

  • labor cost minimization
  • export dependency
  • industrial textile concentration
  • globalized supply chains
  • demand volatility
  • retail compression

shirts.wiki does not claim separation from these systems.

shirts.wiki remains materially dependent on pre-existing garment infrastructure before modification occurs locally.

Post-Processing

After acquisition, garments undergo additional handling including:

  • transfer material application
  • orientation adjustment
  • parameter interpretation
  • packaging integration
  • output documentation

Minor variation between units may occur due to:

  • textile grain behavior
  • pressure differences
  • heat application
  • operator fatigue
  • mechanical positioning tolerance

Absolute uniformity is not expected.

Wear Conditions

The garments are intended to function as normal wearable objects despite system framing.

They may be:

  • folded
  • washed
  • damaged
  • forgotten
  • donated
  • rediscovered later unexpectedly

The system considers all of these valid long-term outcomes.
