Bespoke Shirts - interlinings

Interlinings are hidden, unseen components in shirts yet they are very important. They are the thing that adds the support, handle, soft or firmness and style to the collars and cuffs of your bespoke shirts.

There is the choice of whether the interlinings are sewn in or fused (glued). All of our interlinings are stitched as this gives a more natural look to the collars and stops them being too rigid and 'cardboard' like and flat like so many shirts (even some that are more expensive than ours).

We have chosen our bespoke shirt interlinings to give just the optimum level of firmness which allows the collar to look good and be worn without collar stiffeners in a more casual environment, and with collar stays when worn with a suit and tie.

A look at the collars on our shirts in comparison to many others will soon tell you that our collars are better. they are nicer in style and sit correctly on the shirt.
