The Anatomy of a Stitch

Constructing an exceptional shirt is an exercise in precision, not speed. We have engineered the perfect combination of traditional techniques to ensure every garment we produce meets the standards of the most exacting dresser. Examine our shirting closely, and you will see the fineness of the hand-stitching, the precision, and the care.

18 STITCHES PER INCH

While many can quote a stitch count, true quality lies in the application. Every Thomas Pink shirt is sewn with precisely 18 stitches per inch. We have found this to be the absolute optimum number, striking a flawless balance between uncompromising durability and refined elegance.

SINGLE-NEEDLE LOCKSTITCH

We refuse to take shortcuts. Every single seam on a Thomas Pink shirt is constructed using a single-needle lockstitch. This painstaking process requires extraordinary effort, taking approximately four times as long to execute as standard shirting construction, but it guarantees a sharp, puckering-free seam that endures.

THE FRENCH SEAM

We utilise traditional French seams throughout our shirting. This complex technique ensures a remarkably smooth, comfortable finish against the skin while providing an incredibly strong hold. This extra effort culminates in our signature side gusset—a neat, elegant detail that serves as a quiet assurance of genuine craftsmanship.
