DISCOVER OUR QUALITY
Ko Samui Tailors produces entirely in Italy, collaborating with workshops that comply with European regulations: no exploitation, no child labor, and constant monitoring. The short supply chain allows us to work on every detail—stitching, fit, interior finishing, and secure collars—while maintaining a high, consistent quality standard. Even the printing techniques and appliques, which are carried out at our headquarters in Venice, are chosen to blend seamlessly with the fabric, avoiding a plasticized or stiff effect. The result is a consistent, comfortable, and reliable garment that you can wear for years without compromise.

QUESTIONS ABOUT OUR QUALITY
HOW DO I KNOW IF A PRODUCT IS QUALITY?
There are some simple signs you can check right away:
- Fabric: It feels firm and soft, not too thin or "mushy." You can't see the body when held up to the light as soon as you pull it.
- Seams: straight, even, with no protruding threads. Reinforced collar and cuffs.
- Fit: the garment fits well on the body, does not pull in strange places and does not lose its shape immediately.
- Prints / applications: They are not stiff like plastic, they do not make hard creases and they do not already look cracked.
- Clear information: the manufacturer tells you about the materials, their origin, and how to care for them.
When there is transparency, there is usually more quality too.
WHY SHOULD A PRODUCT MADE IN ITALY BE BETTER THAN ONE MADE IN OTHER COUNTRIES?
A product made in Italy is not automatically better just because it carries the Made in Italy label:
The difference lies in how it's made and by whom. In our case, choosing Made in Italy means working with laboratories that have:
- a textile and tailoring tradition built over years of experience
- very strict production standards and quality controls
- a close supply chain, which we can follow, control and improve at every stage
Furthermore, we're talking about companies that operate in compliance with European labor regulations: this means protected workers, regulated hours and conditions, and, above all, no child labor or exploitation.
WHY DO KO SAMUI T-SHIRTS LAST?
KO SAMUI TAILORS t-shirts last over time because they are made of 100% long-staple cotton, more resistant and compact, which reduces pilling and maintains its shape after many washes.
We use fabric weights designed to not deform, reinforced collars and careful stitching, so the garment remains stable, does not "sag" and continues to fit well even after intense use.
WHY CAN'T I USE THE DRYER IF MY GARMENTS ARE OF HIGH QUALITY?
Our garments are made of long-staple cotton: a natural, compact, and durable fabric, but still sensitive to the high heat and intense friction of the dryer. Drying can: shorten the life of the fiber (it stresses and weakens faster) cause shrinkage and deformation (jerseys that twist, collars that get ruined) Furthermore, the printing techniques and appliques we use are designed to be long-lasting and comfortable with proper use: excessively high temperatures and aggressive cycles can harden, crack, dull, or reduce their elasticity over time. For this reason, we recommend drying them naturally: it's the best way to prolong the life of both the fabric and the prints and appliques.
WHY DO YOUR T-SHIRTS COST MORE THAN OTHERS?
You don't just pay for a print, but best fabrics, Italian production and durability over time.
We use long-staple cotton, certified and inspected Italian laboratories, and printing techniques and finishes designed to withstand washing.
We chose to go going against the grain of fast fashion: Instead of buying cheap products that quickly deteriorate, we recommend buying a quality one that you can wear for years.
Fewer disposable items, less waste, more value in what you wear every day.
HOW DO KO SAMUI GARMENTS FIT?
Our fit is regular: follows the body without being too slim or oversized.
If you're between sizes, we usually recommend the size you wear most often in your everyday T-shirts.
We always specify any tighter or more comfortable garments in the product sheets, so you can choose with more confidence.
