History

A concise historical narrative of NAICS Code 315250-08 covering global milestones and recent developments within the United States.

  • The manufacturing of shirts has a long history dating back to the 17th century when they were first introduced in Europe. The first shirts were made of linen and were worn as undergarments. In the 19th century, the manufacturing of shirts became more widespread, and cotton became the primary material used. The invention of the sewing machine in the mid-19th century revolutionized the industry, making it possible to produce shirts on a larger scale. In the United States, the manufacturing of shirts began in the early 20th century, and by the 1920s, the industry was well-established. In the 1950s, the introduction of synthetic fabrics such as polyester and nylon led to the production of more affordable shirts. Today, the manufacturing of shirts is a global industry, with countries such as China, India, and Bangladesh being major producers. In recent history, the manufacturing of shirts in the United States has faced challenges due to competition from low-cost producers overseas. The industry has also been impacted by changing consumer preferences, with many consumers opting for more casual clothing such as t-shirts and sweatshirts. However, there has been a resurgence of interest in high-quality, American-made clothing in recent years, which has led to the growth of small-scale, boutique shirt manufacturers. Additionally, advancements in technology have made it possible for manufacturers to produce shirts more efficiently and with greater precision.
