What kind of hem style is the 'cut hem' mentioned in the shirt description?
I am curious about its structure because the unfamiliar term 'cut hem' is written in the shirt hem description. I would like to know if threads will unravel uncontrollably or if maintenance is troublesome.
It is a hem style where the fabric edge is left as is without being folded and rolled for stitching, and then refined by hand so threads do not unravel further.
Cut hem literally refers to a finishing method where the hem is cut without folding it inward and stitching. Because the edge of the fabric is not folded thick and stitched, it falls lightly, highlighting a casual texture with subtle loose threads at the edges.
OUTDOORSERVICE's Service Plaid Shirt (Navy) adds hand-finishing along the edges to this cut hem structure[1]. If the cut edge is left completely unattended, threads can fray endlessly due to friction or washing, so the hem edge is adjusted by hand to keep fraying under control. On top of this, a washing process was applied after the garment was completely finished[2]. Undergoing a washing process after completion allows loose threads at the hem to settle naturally, reducing the worry of the hem unraveling into an untidy mess while preserving the texture of the cut edge.
hmmm, it is a balance that captures the seemingly rough texture of the cut edge while maintaining everyday neatness through hand-finishing and post-processing.
It has not been confirmed yet what specific stitching technique or thread was used when hand-finishing the edges.
