Introduction
The production of fine tailored garments such as formal suits places a high degree of technical demand on the skills of the manufacturer.
This level of technical demand is also extended to the components used to manufacture these high quality garments. Sewing thread plays a key part in the engineering of the seams of fine tailored garments and this can have a major impact on fine tailored products.
Coats presents a range of sewing threads, designed to meet and exceed the challenges that fine tailoring poses.
Thread Recommendations for Fine Tailoring
Coats Epic Supermax
- A corespun polyester needle thread that combines a high tenacity filament core with a polyester fibre wrap
- Special core-spinning technology, producing threads of high lustre and low surface hairiness, which enhances seam appearance
- Lower controlled elongation in the finer sizes helps combat seam puckering
- Allows the use of finer thread sizes which gives better seam appearance without compromising seam strength
