What does "Garment-Dyed" mean?

When browsing through our t-shirts, you might come across the term "garment-dyed" — but what exactly does that mean, and why does it matter?

Let’s break it down.

What is Garment-Dyed?

Garment-dyed is where the entire t-shirt is dyed after it’s been sewn together, rather than dyeing the fabric beforehand. This process gives each piece a unique, lived-in look and a softer feel from day one.

Unlike regular pre-dyed shirts, garment-dyed apparel goes through a special wash after it’s made, giving it a slightly faded, vintage vibe and breaking in the fabric gently — like your favorite tee you’ve owned for years.


Why we chose Garment-Dyed for Badminwear

At Badminwear, we’re not just making clothes for badminton players — we’re building everyday pieces that feel good to wear anywhere. Whether you're cooling down after a tournament or just grabbing coffee with friends, we want your gear to feel relaxed, soft, and timeless.

Here’s why garment-dyed fits our vision:

Ultra-soft feel – The post-dye wash process makes the fabric incredibly soft against your skin.
Natural, faded tones – It gives our t-shirts a chill, worn-in look that matches the relaxed energy of our brand.
Every piece is unique – No two shirts are exactly the same, which fits perfectly with our mindset: be original, on and off the court.
Built to last – The dyeing process also improves colorfastness and makes our tees more durable with each wear and wash.


The Badminwear identity

Our brand is about blending streetwear and sport, with a focus on comfort, simplicity, and confidence. Garment-dyed t-shirts reflect that spirit — they’re not flashy, but they say something. They carry a sense of ease, movement, and character.

When you wear one of our tees, we want you to feel like yourself — not like you're trying too hard. Just real, comfortable, and ready for whatever’s next.
