Inside Pocket golf shirt

Men, you can now carry your valuables above the waist without stringing one of those geeky travel wallets around your neck. Inside Pocket is the fashionably secure solution. This 100 percent combed cotton shirt looks, on the surface, like any high-quality golf shirt. It has a three-button placket with inside tape, welt collar and sleeve openings, twill taped neck, shoulders and vents and drop tail with vents. But the tailoring is different for the pocket: Beneath a neat, embroidered panel, the free-hanging pocket opens only on the inside. Things don't fall out when you bend forward, and it's a lot harder for thieves to help themselves to whatever you've put there. The pocket's dimensions are large enough to hold a passport, and its contents are accessible by reaching through the neck of the shirt. Men's sizes range from small to XXL and are available in white, black, North Carolina blue and chamois. (Available online at www.insidepocketinc.com)

Question:
What are the two colors most popular for trade show "uniforms"?

Answer:
Yellow and Red. The brighter the color, the more booth staffers stand out as a team, so they can be found anywhere in the booth.

Question:
What type of garments is embroidered more than any other?

Answer:
Golf shirts. They comprise 53% of all garments embroidered.

Question:
What does "pre-shrunk" really mean in conjunction with golf shirts?

Answer:
It is a process where the bolted, uncut fabric is run through rollers containing tiny nubs that press the fabric over the nubs, creating grooves which condense it. This puckered shrinking effect then allows for real shrinking when washed. Therefore, the fabric ¬ not the shirt ¬ is pre-shrunk before it is even cut and sewn. It is NOT pre-washing the fabric.

Question:
What does the term "ounces" of fabric refer to?

Answer:
The weight of the fabric based on one yard of fabric.
