Let's find out together!
Here are the most important sartorial details
A tailored garment is usually made to measure and as such can be customized in different ways. It's a question of style but also of taste, and it's a very subjective thing that differs from person to person. However, it's the small tailored details that make a garment unique , and in particular a good pair of trousers.
Tailored slit
Have you ever noticed that little V-cut that peeks out from the back of your pants? It is a sartorial slit and it is an important and elegant detail. Many do not know that it is absolutely not a sewing error but a detail designed to increase the comfort and wearability of the garment , which makes your pants unique.
Heel kick
The heel pad is an essential detail that increases the life of a pair of trousers . It is a small and simple strip of fabric sewn to the bottom of the leg of the trousers to prevent them from being ruined by contact with shoes. It is not visible from the outside but it makes a difference!
Tailored belt
The tailored belt is another of those details that serve and make a garment more valuable. A strip of cotton fabric with wide pleats sewn at the waist to support the waist and highlight the hips . It can be the same shade as the trousers or with contrasting fabric to make the garment a little more aggressive.
Pinces
Darts are an element that comes from the past but that, in recent years, has come back into fashion. They are found in pockets and are essential for those who usually put their wallet, phone or hands inside them. Their purpose is to not deform the trousers and ensure greater comfort and wearability.
Belly-thigh
The tummy tuck is not visible from the outside but it serves to slim the figure , it is a system created by a button plus a fabric hook sewn into the front inside of the trousers, just above the zipper. Its task is to keep the fabric taut and prevent the belly from protruding excessively or the trousers from creating unsightly creases.
Pockets
Pockets , often underestimated, are actually a significant detail. In tailored models they are usually cut diagonally and are held in place at the top by the travetto, a small seam that prevents them from breaking. They are often used to tone down the seriousness of a garment as well as for comfort.
Passers-by
Belt loops are useful to allow men to use belts and thus improve the fit of the garment . They are inserted inside the cut and blocked with the cross tacks. For braces, it is good to remember that belt loops are not used but two buttons inside the trousers.
Horse of the pants
One of the most important parts of this garment, it is the most exposed and always tense area. It has a double back seam plus a reinforcement of the internal fabric, the purpose of the crotch is to avoid tears and increase the elasticity of the trousers .
