tri-blend
Triple material combination
A tri-blend is a fabric made from three different fibers, typically cotton, polyester, and rayon.
The combination produces a soft, lightweight material with good drape that's popular for t-shirts and casual wear: I prefer tri-blend tees because they're softer than pure cotton.
The term appears most often in clothing descriptions and retail contexts.
