This placket construction conceals the center-front buttons beneath a double layer of fabric for a sleek and polished finish. This tailoring detail is often seen on formal tuxedo shirts; however, don’t be surprised if it shows up in more playful ways on PlayLoveWin shirts.
A 3D pocket construction featuring a gusset around the edge of the pocket, allowing it to expand outward to accommodate your daily ephemera or collapse flat when empty, preventing the front of the shirt jacket from looking bulky. On our PLW shirt jackets, the pocket is skillfully hand-sewn to the inside of the shacket, keeping it securely in place without any visible stitching on the exterior.
A seam-finishing technique that encloses the raw fabric edges in a narrow bound seam, creating a clean, durable finish. By concealing the raw edges, it helps prevent fraying through wear and washing, and feels comfortable against the skin. The finishing is neat enough that you could wear the shirt inside out.
Precise, narrow folds typically stitched down to the front of the shirt. As the name suggests, "pin" refers to the fine width of each fold, while "tuck" refers to the fabric being folded and sewn into place. A decorative sewing technique that adds a visual texture and a bit of structure.
A small triangular fold of fabric sewn where the side seam meets the hem. This intentional detail acts as a piece of insurance for your shirt, reinforcing a high-stress area to help prevent the side seams from splitting open through wear.
