Default brand and fabric touch feeling

I visited some stores to show my tees and see if they would sell it for me. I also asked them for what was selling more in there shop (in France)

All answers were the same :
- a logo or brand name at the back, on the neck
- touch feeling and quality looking is important

I went back home and added a 4 inches flex transfer on the neck like at the back reading a brand name I just created. It indeed looks WAY better.

I need info on touch feeling. I am not pleased with the 100% cotton T-shirts I have done this month. Of course they are cheap (3 dollars per piece).

Also, my kid went to a sailing school and asked me for a sailing boat flex transfer on a t-shirt to attend the school. Knowing that he would go in and out the salted water very often, and that I would wash it every night, I decided to test another material : a 100% polyester blac t-shirt, brand DYNAWORK. The transfer looks WAY more professional, the fabric would not extend like cotton or loose its shape, and nothing happened to it or to the transfer after 2 weeks of intensive use.

Do you guys use 100% polyester Tees ? The black one I bought was very expensive (14 USD retail price in a supermarket), but it gave me the feeling that it would last forever. Are there any famous producer of 100% polyester tees ? I would be ready to pay twice as much for it as for the 100% cotton Tees I am using now.
