For the construction of our shirts, we use smooth cotton poly threads that are extra strong non shrink as well as we use high tensile strength silk woven threads.
The stitch count on our shirts are 120 and above.
all seams double stitched, elasticated collar buttons, collars and front rim stitched, extra generous shoulder seams..overall our quality of workmanship is comparable to the best there is. Our collars are double layer top fused collars and include removable or permanent collar stays depending on the style of collar.
The shirt cuffs are double layered top fused, barrel cuffs are convertible with expandable button stance for ease of wearing a watch or bracelet.
At the back of the shirt, we incorporate single side back pleats, double side back pleats, box pleats, inverted box pleats and plain no pleat yoke. Box pleats though are the normal standard of production.
Our seams are double stitched packed seams so no interlock stitches are visible when rolling up the sleeves.
We use imitation mother of pearl buttons as standard, Real mother of pearl buttons can be used upon request. Coloured shirts have either imitation horn buttons or coloured buttons that match. Button holes are hand sewen with interlocked machine stitches.
