Complete Guide to Unstitched Men's Clothing in Pakistan | AFSAAR

If you're looking for the best unstitched fabric in Pakistan, you've come to the right place. There's something incredibly satisfying about choosing your own fabric, selecting that perfect shade, and getting it tailored exactly the way you want it. And that's precisely what makes unstitched by AFSAAR such a game-changer in Pakistan's fashion scene. Whether you're preparing for a wedding, upgrading your office wardrobe, or just want something comfortable for daily wear, unstitched fabric gives you complete control over your style—without sacrificing quality or fit.

At AFSAAR Boutique, we understand that today's Pakistani men (especially those between 20 and 35) want fabric that's trendy, durable, and fits within their budget. That's why we've created this comprehensive guide to help you navigate everything you need to know about unstitched by AFSAAR—from understanding different fabric types to choosing the perfect one for any occasion.

What is Unstitched Men's Clothing?

Let's break it down. Unstitched clothing refers to fabric that hasn't been sewn into a garment yet. You purchase the raw material—typically 4 to 7 meters depending on the fabric type—and then take it to your tailor to get it stitched into shalwar kameez, kurta, or whatever style suits you best.

But why do Pakistani men still prefer unstitched over ready-made options? Well, it's all about customization and quality. When you buy unstitched by AFSAAR, you're not stuck with standard sizes or cookie-cutter designs. You decide everything: the kurta length, shalwar width, collar style, pocket placement—every detail is yours to control. And that level of personalization? It's simply unmatched by ready-to-wear clothing.

There's also the quality factor to consider. When you handpick your fabric from AFSAAR, you know exactly what you're getting. You can feel the texture, examine the weave, and ensure it's comfortable before you commit. Plus, it's often more cost-effective in the long run—premium unstitched by AFSAAR can actually be more affordable than buying an equivalent ready-made suit, especially when you factor in durability and longevity.

Basic Sizing & Measurement
One of the most frequently asked questions we receive at AFSAAR is: "How much fabric do I actually need?" It's an important question, especially if you're new to buying unstitched by AFSAAR.

(see the generated image above)

Standard length: For most men between 5'10" and 6 feet tall, here's your guide:

Wash & Wear: 4 to 4.5 meters is the standard measurement for a complete shalwar kameez suit. This provides enough fabric for the kurta (shirt), shalwar (pants), and even small details or pocket work.

China Boski: Typically 4.5 meters for standard suits, similar to Wash & Wear. Some premium variants may come in 6.5 to 7 meters depending on the width.

Soft Lattha: You'll need 7 meters for a standard suit. This is because Lattha fabric typically comes in narrower widths. Don't worry—this is completely normal for Lattha, and any experienced tailor will know exactly how to work with it.

How to measure: When getting measured for your suit, ensure three key measurements are taken accurately: your chest width (measured around the fullest part), shoulder width (from shoulder point to shoulder point), and preferred length (from shoulder to your desired kurta length, usually knee or mid-thigh). You'll also need waist and inseam measurements for the shalwar. A skilled tailor will factor in your personal preferences—whether you like a fitted look or prefer more relaxed, comfortable cuts.

Pro tip: If you're between sizes or prefer a looser fit, it's always better to have slightly extra fabric. Your tailor can easily adjust downward, but they can't add fabric if you're short.

Quick Care Tips

Proper care of your unstitched by AFSAAR fabric ensures it looks great and lasts longer. And the good news? It's not complicated. Each fabric type has specific needs, but the general principles are straightforward.

General Washing Tips for Wash And Wear :

• Always pre-wash unstitched fabric before taking it to your tailor—this prevents unexpected shrinkage after the first wash
• Separate colors: Wash colored and white fabrics separately to prevent color bleeding
• Use cold or lukewarm water: Hot water can damage natural fibers and cause premature fading
• Choose mild detergents: Avoid harsh chemicals and bleach (unless the fabric is white)
• Hand wash when possible: It's gentler on the fabric and helps maintain texture, especially for delicate weaves
• Air dry in shade: Avoid direct sunlight, which can fade colors over time

Fabric-Specific Care:

Fabric-Specific Care for Wash & Wear:

 Machine wash on gentle cycle is perfectly fine. Hang or lay flat to dry. Minimal ironing needed, but if you do iron, use warm (not hot) settings.

Fabric-Specific Care for China Boski:

 Machine washable on gentle cycle or hand wash in lukewarm water. This is what makes it superior to traditional Boski—you don't need dry cleaning. Use mild detergent and avoid harsh scrubbing. Air dry and iron on medium heat if needed.

Fabric-Specific Care for Cotton Khaddar:

 Hand wash or gentle machine cycle in lukewarm water. Soak for 5-10 minutes before washing. Iron on medium heat while the fabric is slightly damp for best results. Never use high heat, as it can weaken the natural fibers.

Fabric-Specific Care for Soft Lattha:

 Pre-shrink in cold water before stitching. Wash separately using lukewarm water and mild detergent. Avoid over-washing to maintain the crisp texture. Iron on medium heat setting—high temperatures can damage the fabric.

How to store Wash and wear and other Fabric , Storage:

Store your fabrics and finished garments in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Use breathable garment bags or cotton storage bags to protect against dust and moisture. For Khaddar especially, proper storage prevents the fabric from losing its shape and texture.

FAQ
Q1: What's the difference between wash and wear and China Boski?

Both are low-maintenance fabrics, but China Boski takes it a step further. While standard wash and wear is practical and wrinkle-resistant, China Boski adds a luxurious drape and silky texture reminiscent of traditional silk Boski. China Boski has a subtle sheen and smoother feel, making it more suitable for formal occasions, while maintaining the easy-care benefits of wash and wear. If you want elegance with convenience, China Boski is your answer.

Q2: How much fabric do I need for a complete shalwar kameez?

For most standard builds (5'10" to 6 feet), you'll need 4-4.5 meters for wash and wear or China Boski, and 7 meters for Lattha fabric. If you're taller or prefer a longer kurta style, consider adding an extra half meter to be safe.

Q3: Can I wash unstitched fabric before getting it stitched?

Absolutely—in fact, we strongly recommend it! Pre-washing (also called pre-shrinking) prevents your finished garment from shrinking after the first wash. Just soak the fabric in cold water for 6-8 hours, rinse gently, and air dry in shade before taking it to your tailor.

Q4: Which fabric is best for Pakistan's hot summer weather?

Lightweight wash and wear, China Boski, and Soft Lattha are all excellent summer choices. They're breathable, moisture-wicking, and keep you comfortable even in high temperatures. Stick to lighter colors for maximum comfort.

Q5: Is China Boski the same as traditional silk Boski?

No, they're different. Traditional Boski is made from 100% silk and requires dry cleaning. AFSAAR's China Boski is a modern blended fabric (polyester-viscose or similar) that gives you the look, feel, and drape of silk Boski but with wash-and-wear convenience. You can machine wash it at home, making it far more practical for everyday use.

Q6: How do I know if I'm getting authentic, high-quality fabric?

Choose trusted brands like AFSAAR that source directly from manufacturers. Check the fabric's texture—premium fabrics have a consistent weave and feel smooth to touch. The color should be even throughout with no fading or patches. And don't hesitate to ask about fabric composition and care instructions; reputable sellers will provide detailed information.

Q7: What's the average lifespan of garments made from unstitched fabric?

With proper care, a well-made shalwar kameez from quality fabric can last 3-5 years or even longer. Wash and wear, China Boski, and Lattha fabrics are particularly durable and maintain their appearance well over time. The key is following care instructions and choosing quality fabric from the start.
