“Quality control starts when we spread the fabric. Until the plastic bag goes on the garment, it’s quality control all the way, every step of the way. Period.” Steve Barraza, Tianello company founder, said this to me when I first asked him about the pride Tianello’s employees clearly take in the quality of Tianello garments. That pride is well deserved. I had only met Steve in person for the first time a few weeks before, shortly after finally seeing the factory itself firsthand. The first thing I noticed was the fact that the factory is self-contained, part of the same building as the business office. I understood why when Steve explained that it was always a goal of Tianello as a company to sew its own garments, instead of using contractors. The result is direct control over the entire process, allowing a level of quality that other clothing lines have a hard time competing with. Tianello cares about customer satisfaction; retailers almost never have to return a Tianello product back to the factory.

What does this mean for you? Simply put, Tianello sells the high quality, 100% American made clothing that you want. Tianello garments are meticulously inspected, as Steve puts it, “for anything that makes a garment not absolutely perfect.” You will never find a broken stitch in a Tianello garment. If a piece of thread is too small to finish a stitch, it is taken out and replaced with thread long enough to complete the stitch. Most manufacturers would overlook such details for the sake of efficiency.

Tianello.com updates its selection of prints and fashions regularly, so it’s always a good idea to check out what’s new. Steve, and the rest of the Tianello staff, confidently guarantee that nothing you order will disappoint.
