High Quality Shirt Fabrics: The Essence of Quality

Sourcing from Europe's most esteemed mills such as Alumo, Thomas Mason, Canclini, Carlo Riva, Monti, and Sictess, 100 Hands ensure that every piece is a celebration of the best in textile artistry. These fabrics are not just materials; they are the soul of the shirt, embodying an ethos of heritage, classic styling, and an unwavering commitment to quality.

The Challenge of Perfection: Crafting the Best Shirts

The challenge was to make the best shirt in the world. This lofty ambition ignited a spark of creativity and set the stage for a revolution in shirt-making. With this great power came great responsibility. Thus, '100 Hands' was conceived with a mission to enhance every detail of a shirt's quality, making each one second to none.

The craftsmanship of precision: Shirts Handcut & Assembled with Finesse

In the hands of the master tailors at 100 Hands, each shirt transforms from a piece of fabric into a wearable work of art. The commitment to handcrafting precision is evident in every stitch, a dedication that elevates these garments to masterpieces. Each shirt is an ensemble of over 25 components, hand-cut and assembled with a finesse that machines cannot replicate. This meticulous craftsmanship includes:

• Intricate Hand Sewing: Every stitch done by skilled artisans exemplifies artistry using intricate embroidery techniques into a marvel of nearly invisible stitches.
• Precision in Cutting: Ensuring patterns align perfectly, especially for striped or plaid designs, making sure all lines and checks meet seamlessly at the seams.
• Luxurious Buttons: 100 Hands is known for using high-quality materials in all aspects of their shirt making, including the buttons.They often use buttons made from mother-of-pearl, which are not only aesthetically pleasing but also durable and luxurious. Mother-of-pearl buttons are a preferred choice for high-end shirtmakers due to their natural sheen and resistance to wear, adding a touch of elegance to each garment.
• Buttonholes: Each buttonhole is crafted with nearly invisible stitches over 40 minutes, complemented by luxurious materials like mother-of-pearl for the buttons.
• Collars and Cuffs: Collars and cuffs are designed to maintain their form and function, ensuring comfort and style with adjustable and reinforced features.
