What Makes a Shirt ‘Premium’? A Behind-the-Scenes Look at Durins Placket

When we hear the term "premium shirts", we often think of elegance, quality, and superior craftsmanship. But what really sets a premium shirt apart from an ordinary one?

At
Durins Placket, we don’t just make men’s formal shirts; we craft statements of sophistication designed for corporate professionals, business leaders, doctors, and discerning professionals across Pakistan.

This blog takes you behind the scenes of what makes a shirt truly premium — from the choice of fabric and tailoring techniques to the details that reflect refinement.


1. It Begins with Fabric: The Foundation of Luxury

The fabric is the backbone of every premium shirt. At Durins Placket, we use only long-staple cotton, Giza Egyptian cotton, and cotton blends to ensure a soft hand feel, breathability, and durability. These materials are carefully selected for our collections like Formal Shirts and Executive Shirts.

Interesting Fact: Egyptian and Sea Island cotton are two of the most luxurious cotton types globally due to their ultra-long fibers, which enhance smoothness and strength.

2. Yarn Count: The Texture of Quality

A premium shirt often has a higher yarn count (120s, 140s double-ply), offering a finer weave, sleek appearance, and luxurious texture. This means our shirts not only feel better but also last longer. Our Premium Shirts are designed for office wear and corporate settings, offering unparalleled comfort and sharpness.

3. Tailoring Excellence: Precision in Every Stitch

What truly elevates a shirt is its construction. At Durins Placket, our shirts are stitched using industry-best practices, focusing on symmetry, reinforced seams, and well-aligned patterns with SPI Count of 22 . Visit our About Us page to learn about our quality promise.

Our Mens Dress Shirts are known for their structured collars, reinforced cuffs, and neat button plackets — all markers of a high-end product.



4. Fit: The Bespoke Collection

Whether it's a slim fit or classic fit, a premium shirt is tailored to enhance your physique while ensuring day-long comfort. Our Bespoke Shirt Collection is engineered to reflect professionalism while adapting to your body movement.




5. Color Psychology: More Than Just Style

Premium isn’t just about feel, it’s about the message you send. White shirts reflect purity and authority, blue shirts convey trust and intelligence, while grey and pastels showcase calm confidence. Read more in our guide on Best Shirt Colors to Wear at Office.
