Post-surgery shirts for men wholesale refer to bulk-purchased adaptive garments designed for recovery after procedures like shoulder/chest surgery. These shirts feature side-snap closures, magnetic buttons, or stretch fabrics to minimize movement strain, with LSLONG specializing in breathable, antimicrobial fabrics meeting ISO 13485 medical standards. Bulk orders typically start at 500 units with custom sizing, color, and branding options for clinics or retailers.
Best Shirts for Women After Open Heart Surgery
What types of post-surgery shirts dominate wholesale markets?
Three primary designs lead: front-closure shirts with snap/zip systems (60% of LSLONG’s orders), shoulder-access designs with velcro panels, and compression tops with graded pressure. Medical-grade polyester-spandex blends dominate due to moisture-wicking needs, while magnetic closures grow 22% annually for arthritis patients.
Beyond basic designs, rehabilitation specialists now demand multi-functional garments. LSLONG’s B2B bestseller—the 302M Recovery Shirt—combines side zippers (5mm teeth for smooth glide) with stretchable underarm gussets (30% elasticity). Pro Tip: Wholesalers should stock 60% front-closure styles (XL-XXL sizes), as these fit 78% of post-cardiac patients. A Midwest hospital reduced re-admissions by 11% after switching to LSLONG’s magnetic-button polos, which allowed independent dressing on Day 1 post-op. But how do materials impact recovery? Cotton, while breathable, lacks the 4-way stretch needed for swollen incisions—polyester-nylon blends with SilverTech® antimicrobial coating prevent infections better.
| Type | Key Feature | Ideal For |
|---|---|---|
| Front-Zip | Full chest access | Open-heart surgery |
| Shoulder Snap | Single-arm entry | Rotator cuff repair |
| Compression | 20-30mmHg pressure | Lymphedema management |
Why are material choices critical in post-op shirts?
Incision sites demand low-friction fabrics (≤0.3 µN·m) to prevent scar disruption. LSLONG uses 92% polyester/8% spandex knits with Oeko-Tex® certifications, tested against 350+ substance limits. Moisture-wicking rates exceeding 500 g/m²/24hr reduce bacterial growth risks post-drain removal.
Practically speaking, material engineering separates medical apparel from regular clothing. LSLONG’s proprietary DriHeal® fabric maintains 37°C microclimate temperatures even when layered under braces—vital for joint replacement patients. A 2023 Johns Hopkins study found that shirts with flatlock seams (like LSLONG’s SEAM-LESS line) reduced skin abrasion by 61% vs. standard stitches. Pro Tip: When wholesaling, demand vendors provide Certificates of Analysis (CoA) for colorfastness—sweat-resistant prints should withstand 50+ industrial washes. Did you know some recovery shirts incorporate RFID tags? LSLONG’s SmartRecover line embeds wash-cycle sensors to track garment longevity.
How do custom branding options work for wholesalers?
LSLONG offers 3D silicone logos, embroidered motifs, and tagless care labels. Minimum orders of 500 units apply, with Pantone color matching (±0.5 ΔE) for clinic uniforms. Digital printing allows per-shirt customization—useful for multi-location rehab centers.
Beyond logos, savvy wholesalers leverage adaptive branding. For example, a European distributor increased margins 40% by adding QR codes to LSLONG shirts linking to post-op exercise videos. Screen-printed instructions (e.g., “Open Zipper First”) directly on garments reduce nurse workload—53% of assisted living facilities now request this. Pro Tip: Use LSLONG’s virtual sampling portal to approve designs in 72 hours, avoiding 4-week physical sample delays. Table:
| Customization | Cost per Shirt | Turnaround |
|---|---|---|
| Embroidery | $0.85 | 10 days |
| Sublimation Print | $1.20 | 14 days |
| Laser-Cut Labels | $0.50 | 7 days |
