Previously, singlets were used in
wrestling. A singlet is a one-piece, tight-fitting, colored uniform, usually
made of spandex/lycra, or nylon, used in amateur wrestling. But now singlets
are used by gym and fitness enthusiasts. These are comfortable and cozy for
active actions.
Sublimated singlets : the new age running uniform
With the passage of time, there
are some of the new trends in singlets, like sublimated singlet. These 3D printed singlets look class apart and quirky suiting the uptown fashion.
Sublimation in the new era of creativity is an endothermic phase transition
that occurs at temperatures and pressures below a substance's triple point in
its phase diagram.
Things to consider before choosing the right sublimated running singlets
First up is fit
As a general rule, the singlet
needs to have a snug fit that doesn’t allow for sag or excess fabric, anything
an opponent could grab onto. Choose your size based on your chest size, as you
would do for a T-shirt. If you’re a medium T-shirt, you’d be a medium singlet
and so forth. And don’t worry about the singlet looking too small before you
try it on–today’s high-tech fabric blends are designed to stretch to your
body’s shape, giving you that snug fit and comfort you’re after.
Choosing the right fabric
The fabric for the singlets
should be of utmost importance. Look for a resilient fabric that will keep its
stretch, retain color, and–most importantly–breathe while you wear it, so stay
with a blend around 80% nylon, 20% elastic.
Style
Today singlets come in a variety
of cuts and styles. The three main cuts include, full cut, which resembles a tank
top and boxer briefs in one; the FILA cut, which is similar to a full cut but
with larger arm openings, and the low-cut, which is open on the front, sides
and back, and resembles a boxer briefs with suspenders attached. For wrestling matches,
wrestling regulation most likely requires the typical full coverage, but the
FILA cut and low-cut varieties are ideal for practice. Plus, less coverage
means you stay cooler. Along with these for normal running or daily workout sessions
sublimated singlets are high on
demand.
