Personalizing: One colour gusset for all your shirts?

[Kaplan]

This is obviously a little thing, but...

Do you have a colour you always use for the gussets on your MTM and bespoke shirts?

I've seen some brands that put their logo on the gusset, but has anybody here done or thought about picking a single colour for this, letting it become your own personal 'logo'?

 

[Zenny]

Doesnt Thomas Pink do that?

 

[Taxler]

To really make a logo statement, have the entire shirt stitched in your personal color.

If I had gussets on my shirts, this sounds like something I'd do.

 

[Nicholas]

What's the rationale behind it? To remind yourself the shirts are yours?

No.

Never occured to me.

It seems that it is one more thing that the factory can get wrong.

But if they get it wrong and give you different colored gussets, you're no worse off than you were before.

Except that you have gone to the trouble to order them in the first place. Now you've raised your hopes and created an expectation where there was none before.

The part circled is the gusset. It's a separate piece of cloth from the rest of the shirt. In this picture, it's the same fabric as the rest of the shirt.



The OP is suggesting making this from a different color fabric, and using this same fabric for every shirt you have made. It would look something like this, if you were to choose pink.

thanks. for the info

Why exactly would one want a gusset? are there any benefits to this added fabric in your arm pit?

 

[chorse123]

No. I'm not offended by the idea--or pretend e-ffended--but as I get older, I'm less interested in "quirk" and more concerned about fit, versatility, and longevity.

Kaps - gusset is @ the bottom; i.e. run from the arm pit straight down the seam until you hit air.

Gussets are a waste of time!
