SAN FRANCISCO, CA, Sep 02 (MARKET WIRE) --
indiTailored brings the custom fit dress shirt into the digital age with
a new website that makes shopping for customized shirts an online
reality. indi's cutting-edge technology now allows men to easily design
their own tailored-to-fit dress shirts online, and personally choose
details such as fabric, collar, cuff and more. indiTailored's online
configurator displays every aspect of the shirt as the customer creates
it. The concept of indiTailored is simple yet revolutionary, providing
the most convenient way to shop for a custom fit shirt. Additionally,
personalized orders are stored in customer accounts akin to a digital
closet, making replenishing one's wardrobe as quick as a few clicks of
the mouse.
With indi's patented fit technology and mass customization approach,
consumers can personalize their style and choose from millions of possible
combinations, a staggering selection that could never be offered in a
traditional retail store. On the indiTailored site, the customer chooses a
Classic or Tailored style and selects his fabric, ranging from classic to
contemporary colors and patterns. Next the customer can choose from
numerous collar, cuff, placket, pocket and monogram options. Lastly, he
provides some brief fit information, including sleeve length and height,
and answers a handful of visually cued fit questions. With this
information, indiTailored creates a custom dress shirt pattern, from which
the shirt is cut, sewn and shipped directly to the customer in less than
four weeks. indi's technology enables individually designed apparel
without the typically high custom price. Shirts begin at just $79.99.
With all customer data stored digitally, customers can order the exact
same shirt again, or easily modify it by choosing a different fabric,
ordering a different collar or cuff, adding a monogram or any number of
other style variations. Customers can also make fit adjustments to their
unique custom pattern to alter the length, body fit or even cuff width.
indiTailored backs all of its products with a guarantee and offers a full
refund policy if customers are not fully satisfied.
"Many men find shopping to be a hassle, and indiTailored's technology is
an innovative solution to this age-old problem," said Marybeth Luber,
President of indi. "We wanted to offer the customer the option of creating
a custom fit dress shirt that exactly matches his personal style and fit
and while making it as convenient as possible."
indiTailored is another step towards the emerging concept in the apparel
industry known as 'mass customization' -- the use of technology to cost
effectively enable single unit production of apparel.
