Suvin Gold, a high-grade cotton of Indian origin

Cotton powerhouse India boasts the world's largest cotton production, with longer-staple cotton being grown from north to south. Tamil Nadu, India's southernmost state, benefits from both the east and west monsoons, enabling the cultivation of Suvin, the highest grade of Indian cotton with extra-long staple (ELS). Suvin was created by combining the ‘Sujata’ variety of Indian cotton and the ‘St. Vincent’ variety of Sea Island cotton (thus named SuVin), and boasts one of the world's longest staple lengths. Only the best quality first and second-plucked Suvin cotton is selected as Suvin Gold. While approximately 25 million tonnes of cotton is harvested annually worldwide, only about 400 tonnes of Suvin Gold is harvested, making it an extremely rare variety.

Careful sorting by hand

Cotton farms in India are not as mechanised as those in the USA, and cotton is carefully picked one by one by traditional manual labour, taking care to avoid mixing dead leaves and other materials other than cotton fibres. The cotton and seeds are then separated by machine and packed. After this painstaking sorting, the Suvin Gold enters the spinning mills in Japan. At the domestic mills, too, machines are used to carefully separate the cotton from the contaminants while unravelling it.

The picture above shows a comparison of the fibre lengths of San Joaquin Valley cotton, Supima cotton and Suvin Gold respectively. You can see how long the fibres of Suvin Gold are compared to San Joaquin Valley cotton and Supima cotton, which is known as a high quality cotton.

Fabrics with Suvin Gold

Of the Suvin Gold, which originally has very long fibres, only those with fibres above a certain length are selected, and only carefully selected extra-long staple cotton is processed into yarn and fabrics. The rare extra-long staple fibres of Suvin Gold are not only long and strong, but also very delicate, soft and supple to the touch. It is also characterised by its unique silk-like lustre and moist texture due to its rich oil content. This fabric is truly made from the world's finest extra-long staple cotton.

Neck tape

The self-fabric is normally used for the neck tape around the collar. In this polo shirt, a thicker twill tape made of a different material is used to give a more casual look.

Placket

Our polo shirts are designed with extra attention to detail. Instead of the usual overedge stitches at the back of the placket, we have added topstitching to give a more refined finish. We have also meticulously processed the back side of the shirt, which is usually hidden, to achieve a polished appearance. Furthermore, the flat topstitch provides a comfortable feel against the skin, making it perfect for wearing on bare skin.

Side seams

The shirt's sides feature flat felled seams that are topstitched for a comfortable feel against bare skin. Typically, only overedge stitches are used in this area, similar to the placket.

Body hem

Side hem slits with extended back. The design prevents the back from showing even when bending over.

picture

Taped side slits

The back side of the hem slit is also held in place with thick twill tape in the same way as around the neck tape. Not only does this increase the casual appearance, but it also adds durability and prevents the slit from unravelling.

Back yoke

In a departure from the usual design, the back yoke is stitched in two layers, creating a three-dimensional wrap for the body and ensuring a comfortable fit. Additionally, the three-dimensional shoulder component enhances the garment's aesthetic appeal from the back.

Thread shank buttons

Each button is carefully root-rolled one by one. The thread shank not only increases the strength of the button but also creates a gap between the button and the fabric, which has the advantage of making the button easier to put on and take off. The buttons used are also made from rare natural shell buttons.
