Why We Source Our Fortis Cotton T-Shirts from Portugal—And Why Others Do Too
When we set out to create our Fortis Cotton T-Shirts, we weren’t interested in cutting corners. We wanted the best—premium craftsmanship, superior fabric, and long-lasting quality. That’s why we source our T-shirts from Portugal, a country known for its exceptional textile manufacturing. But here’s the thing…
We’re not the only ones. High-end brands do the same. The difference? They’ll slap a logo on the chest and charge you £90+ per T-shirt.
The Truth About Premium T-Shirts
If you’ve ever picked up a high-end T-shirt, chances are it was made in Portugal. Brands that charge £90-£120 per tee go to Portuguese mills because they know what we know:
✅ Unmatched Craftsmanship – Portuguese factories have decades of expertise in premium garment production.
✅ Top-Tier Cotton & Fabric Blends – Their mills work with the finest materials, ensuring softness, durability, and a luxurious feel.
✅ Ethical & Sustainable Production – Portugal has some of the highest standards for worker conditions and sustainability in the industry.
But here’s where we differ.
Are You Paying for Quality—or Just a Badge?
Let’s be real: That £90 T-shirt isn’t costing them much more to make than ours. You’re paying for the brand name, the marketing, and the exclusivity factor. But is a tiny logo on your chest worth an extra £60+ per T-shirt?
Or…
Would you rather give a newer, purpose-driven brand a chance—one that delivers the same premium quality, but for less?
