Hello. This is Kayaba from the ApparelX Division.
Today, I would like to introduce you to the essential tools for making clothes that can be purchased at ApparelX.
Shozaburo's traditional scissors are inherited from Japanese scissor making techniques. The blade uses a combination of high-grade knife steel and ultra-soft steel, and is fully forged to ensure the best sharpness for any job.
Using a composite material of the highest quality knife steel (Yasuki Steel Aogami No. 1) and soft iron, each knife is painstakingly finished by skilled craftsmen. This is a handmade product that Misuzu can recommend with confidence. These rasa cutting scissors are ideal for commercial use due to their sharpness and durability. *The image is 28cm.
We also carry cutting scissors made by French handicraft manufacturer BOHIN.

In addition to large cutting scissors, we also have small scissors for thread cutting, etc. Click here for a list of small scissors.
Speaking of hand sewing needles for craftsmen, it is Soho's Meriken needles.
Basically, I have never seen it sold at retail stores, so I feel like it is for professional use by craftsmen.
I think silk pins are essential for tailors to use when basting. It may also be used for 3D cutting and temporary fixing when making clothes.
We also carry several types of tape measure. It is also essential for tailors and those who work at alterations shops.
As shown in the photo, there is a brass metal fitting on one end, which makes it unusual because it does not bend. The metal fittings prevent it from bending, so it is convenient for adjusting the sleeve length, etc. to measure the length from the fingertips to the cuff.
I've seen some that have plastic parts instead of brass, but this one is more durable and won't weaken and peel off.

There is a thimble of the same shape, but this one is made of sterling silver. This is a thimble that you will want to use carefully. If you use a brass thimble, your fingers may turn blue due to oxidation caused by sweat, but this is not a problem.

A standard piece of chalk with human markings.
Glue for clothes used for temporary fixing. This is a chemical glue that can be easily made by simply dissolving the amount you want to use in water and can be used without wasting anything. It is also OK to store for a long time.
This is the brush used to apply the above glue. It can also be used as a drain when you want to add moisture locally.
For tailors, it may be easier to use a water drainer than a mist sprayer when ironing.
How was it? I think another feature of ApprarelX is that when ordering auxiliary materials, you can also order tools all at once.
There are still many tools that are not introduced, so please take a look.
