Craftsmanship
Our focus at Charles Pinckney Shirts is to create a garment of exceptional quality and durability. To achieve this we use the finest Italian fabrics from Tessitura Monti S.p.A, the best German interlinings from Wendler, the strongest mother of pearl buttons and the most durable threads from Japan. We combine this with our in-house pattern-making methods and experienced master craftmanship, in our own state of the art production centre, to create a shirt that is truly one of a kind.
Each garment is constructed using the following techniques to ensure it is engineered to the highest standards:
- Each shirt is made to an individual measurement specification
- 18-20 stitches per inch in sewing construction
- Side seams - French binding
- Armhole / Sleeve Attach - twin needle top stitch
- Collar construction - Patched collar using Wendler interlinings
- Four piece collar - removable collar stays
- Lock stitch buttons
- 156 stitches per button hole
- Fabric patterns on the shirt are matched across the front and from the yoke to the sleeve to ensure a consistent pattern across every shirt
- Matching sleeve pleats
