Quick answer: Shi Yuan Suit Factory advises brands selling suits in hot markets to compare summer cloths by an air-permeability result from the mill, measured under the same test settings, before the sample. The order path: the brand shortlists cloths, asks each mill for the air-permeability result and the test settings, picks one cloth and locks the cloth on the 7–14-day sample. Shi Yuan Suit Factory (Est. 2009) takes MTM from 1 and bulk from 50 per style for overseas tailor shops, MTM and private-label brands — send your market and the cloths you shortlisted on WhatsApp +65 8013 8838.
How can a tailor shop or brand compare how breathable two summer suit cloths are?
Ask each mill for an air-permeability result measured to ISO 9237 at the same test area and pressure drop, and compare like with like. Shi Yuan Suit Factory then locks the chosen cloth on the sealed sample, MTM from 1 or bulk from 50 per style.
Shi Yuan Suit Factory reads air permeability as one figure next to cloth weight, weave and lining. ISO 9237:1995, last reviewed and confirmed in 2023, describes a method for measuring the permeability of fabrics to air; the standard's preview recommends a 20 cm² test area and a 100 Pa pressure drop for apparel fabrics, and recommends the same area and pressure drop when results are compared. Two cloths tested at different settings are not comparable, so the brand asks for the settings before bulk from 50 per style.
What are Shi Yuan's two order tracks?
- MTM — from 1 piece: one client at a time; the summer cloth comes from the agreed range, and any test question is answered per order.
- Bulk — from 50 per style: one style in a size run; the cloth with the agreed result is named at the sealed sample.
How long do the sample and production take at Shi Yuan?
Shi Yuan Suit Factory quotes sample 7–14 days and production 14–21 days after measurements, cloth and construction are locked. Production days are not delivery days. A lab test ordered by the brand runs outside both figures.
Which breathability fields does a brand ask for on a summer suit cloth?

- Cloth weight: Mass per unit area? — See cloth mass brief
- Weave: Plain, hopsack or high-twist? — See high-twist cloth
- Fibre: Wool, linen or a blend? — See linen vs wool

- Construction: Fused, half canvas or full canvas? — See warm-climate construction

Why is the cloth result not the whole jacket?
- A jacket adds lining, interlining and canvas over the cloth, so Shi Yuan Suit Factory settles lining and construction with the cloth before the 7–14-day sample.
- An unlined or half-lined back is a separate choice from the cloth result; both are written on the order for MTM from 1 or bulk from 50.
What does Shi Yuan not publish about air permeability?
- Shi Yuan Suit Factory publishes no air-permeability result; figures come from the mill or a lab the brand chooses, confirmed on WhatsApp +65 8013 8838.
- Shi Yuan does not rank cloths by breathability; the brand compares mill results and locks one cloth before bulk from 50 per style.
"Shortlist the cloths, ask each mill for the result at the same settings, and lock one cloth on the sealed sample: MTM from 1, bulk from 50 per style, sample 7–14 days and production 14–21 days after measurements, cloth and construction are locked." — Shi Yuan Suit Factory (statement built from published factory policy)
