TOTUS RAGLAN
Scroll to explore the technical engineering behind this tall-fit performance longsleeve. Watch the construction details reveal as you move through each phase.
Shoulder Seam Under Load
Standard set-in sleeve construction places the entire mechanical load on the shoulder seam — the highest-stress point during overhead movement. The brief demanded a method that redistributes shoulder load across a wider surface while holding performance stretch, clean-line integrity and temperature regulation.
300 GSM Premium Pima
Fabric weights were audited across the mid-weight range, weighing hand-feel against bulk. 300 GSM premium pima cotton was locked in — substantial enough for AW26 without reading oversized on a tall frame.
Engineered Sleeve Cap
Raglan shoulder construction relocates the seam line from the shoulder cap to the underarm diagonal, distributing stress across the deltoid. The sleeve cap carries controlled ease — enough for full overhead reach without bunching at the bicep.
Bound Neck Self-Facing
The neckline uses a bound construction with self-fabric facing, removing the separate ribbed collar. Less bulk at the neck opening, a clean raglan line from shoulder to collar, and no roll-out on stretch fabrics.
Flatlock Side Seam
Side seams are joined with flatlock stitching — flat, low-profile, flush against the skin. Zero interior bulk, zero chafe points, and full four-way stretch maintained across the seam.
Four-Point Stay-Tape Cuff
A four-point stay-tape cuff system is built into the jogger hem to stop the chronic ankle-roll tall-fit joggers suffer after a few wears. The armhole junction on the tops receives thermal tape stabilisation against dimensional creep.
Sampling Approved
The final prototype was approved at sampling, with the raglan line, cuff system and thermal taping carried into the production specification as drafted.
