We are serious about our Non-Iron...
AT J. HARVEST & FROST WE TAKE GREAT PRIDE IN MAKING THE FINER WEAR WORK. TO VISUALIZE THE APPEARANCE OF THE SHIRT BETTER FOR EACH MODEL, WE CREATED A 6 / 6 GRADING SYSTEM. OUR SYSTEM IS BASED ON THE APPEARANCE SYSTEM THAT WELL KNOWN TESTING CENTERS LIKE SGS ARE USING. THEIR SYSTEM HOWEVER HAS 5 GRADES WHERE N O 5 IS THE HOLY GRAIL OF NON-IRON. UNOBTAINABLE WITH THE CURRENT TECHNOLOGY WITHOUT STEAM IRONING THE SHIRT. IT IS THE BRIGHT SHINING PRIZE WORTH STRIVING FOR. WE ARE CLOSE BUT WE’ LL LET YOU KNOW WHEN WE REACH IT.

... and about our materials
WE CAN TALK FOR HOURS ABOUT THE DISTINCT DIFFERENCES BETWEEN A TRADITIONAL TWILL WEAVE AND ITS LESSER-KNOWN SIBLING, THE ROYAL TWILL WEAVE. THIS MIGHT MAKE US A BIT LONELY AT DINNER PARTIES, BUT IT MAKES US ABSOLUTELY AMAZING AT CONSTRUCTING THE MOST STYLISH AND FUNCTIONAL SHIRTS IMAGINABLE. LET’ S TALK.
TWILL WEAVE A fabric characterized by a discreet diagonal rib pattern, offering durability and a soft drape, commonly used in shirts and trousers.
ROYAL TWILL WEAVE A refined version of the traditional twill, featuring a tighter weave more pronounced rib pattern and a subtle sheen, suitable for formal shirts.
BEDFORD WEAVE A durable fabric with a ribbed texture, similar to corduroy but with less pronounced ribs.
OXFORD WEAVE A basket weave fabric combining two yarns woven together, resulting in a slightly textured, soft, and breathable finish, ideal for both casual and formal shirts.
JACQUARD WEAVE A complex weaving technique that creates intricate patterns directly into the fabric, adding texture and visual interest without the need for pattern printing.
LINEN WEAVE A plain weave fabric made from flax fibers, known for its breathability and lightweight properties, making it ideal for warm-weather clothing.
CORDUROY WEAVE A durable fabric featuring a distinct raised“ cord” or wale texture, created by weaving extra sets of fiber into the base fabric to form vertical ridges, commonly used in trousers, jackets, and shirts.
PIQUÉ KNIT A textured knit fabric with a raised pattern, often used in polo shirts, providing a subtle texture and breathability.
INTERLOCK KNIT A double-knit fabric with a smooth surface on both sides, offering a soft hand feel and good stretch, commonly used in t-shirts and underwear.
