subject: Bespoke Dress Shirts Made To Measure Dress Shirts On A Budget [print this page] Don't mistake the title of this item for bespoke dress shirts made on a budget to be of poor quality and bear any resemblance to anything which is bought off the peg; rather affordable made to measure dress shirts still retain the qualities which have made them desired articles of clothing for well dressed men about town. Typically, a custom dress shirt made to measure for a unique body shape will be made from fine exquisite linen or fine Egyptian two ply cotton at the very least, Egyptian cotton being revered as the best example of this natural occurring commodity.
Off the peg shirts which are made from cotton have a much lower thread count per inch of material than made to measure thereby reducing costs, as the mass market is driven by high volumes and maximizing profits for stock holders and other interested stakeholders. Although off the peg shirts are okay as judged by the millions of men who wear them for work and socializing, they never reach the standards set by master craftsmen tailors making fine, hand crafted shirts and other items of clothing.
Characteristically made to measure shirts have a higher thread rate per inch of material and typically have a count of at least one hundred threads per inch; off the peg will have nowhere near as many and can be seen in how an off the peg shirt will start to wear fairly quickly. A typical sign of wear is when the material starts to take on a shine, especially on the elbows. Fraying is not uncommon, especially on collars and cuffs where the material has an edge which is constantly exposed to wear
Take into account also that a shirt which is hand stitched together implicitly has a higher stitch count per inch and therefore has greater strength wherever there is a seam; more strength and durability means fewer issues with seams unraveling, as happens with off the peg creations put together by machine sewing. More care is taken on the crafting of something by hand than any machine can offer.
The great look that comes with a proper fit, the ability to have every detail tailored to your specific preferences and the pleasure to own something unique is unparalleled.
