Precise cutting is anThe quality of a shirt can be measured in many ways, and here are some factors that reflect a high-quality shirt:
- Fabric aspect
- Raw material quality
For cotton shirts, long staple cotton is a representative of high quality. Like Egyptian long staple cotton and American Pima cotton, the fiber length is long, generally up to 33-45mm, while the ordinary cotton fiber length is mostly 25-30mm. The advantage of long staple cotton is that the fibers are slender, which makes it tougher and less likely to break. With long staple cotton woven shirt fabric, the surface is more smooth, soft texture, wear less irritation to the skin, and has good air permeability and moisture absorption.
If it is a silk shirt, mulberry silk is the best raw material. Mulberry silk is made from cocoon reeling, its protein fiber content is high, the fiber fineness is uniform, generally about 13-18 microns. This fineness of the fiber makes the silk shirt feel extremely delicate, the luster is soft and natural, like a pearl-like luster, and has a good drape, when wearing can be well fitted to the body curve, while losing the sense of elegance.
Of the linen shirts, the linen is of superior quality. Flax fiber has good breathability and hygroscopic property, its fiber structure is relatively loose, can quickly absorb and distribute human sweat. And the fiber strength of flax is high, although the wrinkle resistance is slightly worse than cotton and silk, but after special treatment, it can also have better appearance retention. It also has antibacterial properties, which are beneficial for skin health.
- Fabric weaving technology
High count is an important index to measure the fineness of fabric. The higher the count, the finer the yarn, and the lighter and softer the fabric. For example, the number of high-quality shirt fabrics can reach more than 100, and even some top brands will use about 200 pieces of fabric. This high-count fabric requires more advanced equipment and exquisite craftsmanship in the weaving process.
Tight weaving is also critical. A good shirt fabric uses a tight weaving process, which can make the fabric more tough and reduce the phenomenon of fuzz and pilling. At the same time, tight weaving can also improve the anti-wrinkle properties of the fabric, so that the shirt can better maintain its shape after wearing and washing.
important sign of a high-quality shirt. A good shirt will fully consider the engineering principles of the human body when cutting, such as the neckline, cuffs and shoulders of the shirt to meet the needs of human activity. The curve of the neckline should fit the curve of the neck, the size of the cuffs should be moderate, easy to move the arm, and the cut of the shoulder should ensure that the wearing is smooth, without tight or loose feeling.
In addition, the cutting of advanced shirts will also pay attention to the overall coordination of the version. For example, the slim-fit version of the shirt, from the chest, waist to the bottom of the line transition naturally smooth, can show the body line well, but not too tight and affect the activity.
- Sewing technology
Fine stitching is usually used in high-quality shirts. For example, the number of stitches per inch (2.54 cm) can reach 18 to 22 stitches, such a fine seam can make the shirt more firm, not easy to open. And the quality of the stitches is also very high, usually using high-quality polyester fiber thread or cotton thread, which has good strength and wear resistance.
The shirt is sewn with great detail. For example, shirt cuffs and necklines are often reinforced, such as by double-stitching or adding lining. The stitching of the buttons is also strong, and high-quality buttons, such as shell buttons or horn buttons, are used, which have a good texture and are durable.
- Shape design and fit
A good shirt pattern should be classic and practical. It can adapt to different occasions, whether business or leisure occasions. For example, the traditional English shirt version, with a crisp neckline and appropriate ruffles at the cuffs, and the overall shape is rigorous and suitable for business wear; The Italian style of the shirt version is more slim, fashionable, neckline and cuff design is more simple, more suitable for casual suits or single wear.
Fit is key. High-quality shirts should be able to accurately fit the body, the size of each part of the error is very small. It is neither too loose to look sloppy, nor too tight to feel uncomfortable. It can be customized according to different body characteristics to achieve the best wearing effect.
