TO ALL MY CUSTOMERS:
Durene material is nothing more than a sales gimmick in today's market. We here at Yesteryear Sports have done a lot of research on this. And we have finally tracked down a reputable source who has been making football jerseys since the 60's.
This is the letter that was sent to me by my supplier and head jersey manufacturer:
Technically, the cotton yarn we now use is not "durene". The product we used to buy as Durene cotton was simply a very fine grade of yarn. It was a government standard that had to be met in order to call it by that name. It was a finer gauge yarn, advertised as being softer & stretchier than normal gauge combed and/or carded cotton we use today. It was really a sales gimmick and ended up being used in sox, underwear , etc. It was really not that much different from today's products, just finer spun yarn. Like so many other things, it is still available but is very expensive which is why athletic apparel makers stopped using it.
The irony of the whole thing is that our material (and all the other manufacturers) was a 50/50 plaited knit fabric which means half the yarn was nylon on the outside surface and 50% cotton was on the inside next to the skin. This was for comfort & absorbancy. The result was that all you see is the nylon so the fabric looks exactly like any other fabric with nylon exterior. Actually, the cotton yarn we use now is more durable for football than Durene ever was.
Hope this gives you some insight into the history of Durene. It was a selling tool and 99% of people couldn't tell the difference.
Yesteryear Sports will never advertise any of our jerseys again as "durene". We did our research and took all of your input and put that to work to find out what all the uncertainty was among everyone. Well, we now know.
