Hi, everyone.
One of my client recently asked me to make a shirt.
He asked me to add this detail on the bottom of shirt.

The following is the sample I have:

And this is another RTW shirt:

It's not a big deal to make a shape of it, but I wonder what is the exact function of it.
Does this extension have right name?
Is there an historical reference about it?
I will be happy to listen and study.
Thanks and Sorry for my poor English.

Never saw that either, but I guess it keeps the balls warm or so... LOL

If you don't love to work long hours for little money don't try to become a tailor.

If you go crazy cause you can't solve a certain tailoring problem then put the stuff aside and go for a walk it might be possible you end up in the funny farm. LOL

This is an old detail, I've seen many late edwardian and shirts from the 20's with it. I think it's a brilliant detail to keep the shirt bottoms from opening up and binding on you
