T-Shirts

When choosing a sports T-shirt, look for moisture-wicking polyester that dries quickly, a fit that stays in place when you swing overhead, and a style that suits your use: crew neck T-shirts for training, or game tops for matches in our badminton clothing range. Pair them with badminton and tennis shorts. Our what to wear for badminton guide and tennis kit guide cover full outfits.

Badminton T-shirt FAQs

What is the best T-shirt for badminton?

The best badminton T-shirt is lightweight, made from moisture-wicking polyester and cut to allow full overhead movement. It should dry quickly between games and not cling when damp. Yonex T-shirts such as the YTM and YTL ranges are designed for badminton, but any good technical sports T-shirt will do the job.

Are cotton T-shirts good for sport?

Cotton is comfortable for casual wear but absorbs sweat and becomes heavy and cold when wet. For badminton, tennis or gym training, a technical polyester T-shirt is a better choice because it pulls moisture away from the skin and dries faster. Cotton is fine for light exercise or wearing to and from the court.

What is the difference between a sports T-shirt and a game top?

A sports T-shirt is usually a simpler crew neck design for training and everyday wear. A game top is designed for matches, often with a collar or more technical construction and bolder graphics. Both use performance fabrics. Many players train in T-shirts and keep game tops for league or tournament play.
