The Unsung Heroes of Your T-Shirt: How Our 20-Stitch Experts Elevate Every Garment

At Custom T Shirt (customtshirt.co.in), we believe flawless stitching is the backbone of a premium tee. While others focus solely on prints (we don’t use DTG), our 20-person skilled stitching team ensures every seam, hem, and neckline outlasts trends. Here’s why stitching mastery separates our tees from the rest.

Why Stitching Quality Dictates Comfort & Longevity

Poor stitching leads to twisted seams, frayed collars, and shoulder seams that dig. Our artisans prevent this by mastering:

  • Tension control: Balanced thread tension prevents puckering or stretching.

  • Seam alignment: Precision-matching side seams for a structured drape.

  • Reinforcement: Critical stress points (sleeves, necklines) get double-stitched durability.

Meet the Techniques Our 20 Experts Master

  1. Single-Needle Stitching (The Luxury Standard)

    • Why it matters: Creates flat, invisible seams ideal for collar bands and sleeve cuffs.

    • Our twist: We use 30% thicker threads for tear resistance.

  2. Overlock Stitching (The Fray Fighter)

    • Why it matters: Encases raw edges to prevent unraveling after 50+ washes.

    • Bonus: Our team adjusts stitch density based on fabric stretch (critical for blends!).

  3. Coverstitching (The Professional Hem)

    • Why it matters: Creates stretchy, flat hems that won’t curl or pop.

    • Pro tip: We use 3-needle coverstitching for heavyweight tees (220+ GSM).

  4. Bar-Tacking (The Stress Buster)

    • Why it matters: Reinforces collar corners and pocket edges against ripping.

    • Custom T Shirt’s standard: 12-15 stitches per cm for military-grade durability.

How Stitching Impacts Your Custom Prints

(Since we avoid DTG printing), our screen printing, sublimation, and heat transfer methods demand perfectly constructed fabrics:

  • Smooth surfaces: Tight seams prevent fabric wrinkles → crisp print registration.

  • Stretch management: Expert stitching maintains fabric integrity during heat presses.

  • Longevity: Reinforced seams ensure prints don’t crack at stress points.

"A great print fails if the seams can’t hold it. Our team engineers garments to carry your design."
