Industry & Occupation
Classification
Summary
Men's suit sewing workers are specialists who manufacture men's suits, jackets, pants, and other men's wear, handling everything from fabric cutting to sewing, pressing, and finishing.
Description
Men's suit sewing workers are artisans who manufacture men's suits, jackets, pants, and other men's wear. First, they cut fabric based on designs or patterns and sew using industrial sewing machines or hand stitching. They then attach fusible interlining, perform basting, press with irons, attach buttons, and carry out other finishing tasks, finally inspecting and adjusting the product. Since dimensional accuracy and seam beauty directly impact quality, a high level of attention to detail and experience are required.
Future Outlook
Although mass-production sewing is shifting overseas and to automation, demand for high-end made-to-order sewing and domestic brands remains strong, and demand for artisans with advanced sewing skills is expected to persist at a certain level going forward.
