We use hand-stitched taped edges, double-stitched for durability along the perimeter seams, plus heavy-duty upholstered handles.
Most companies use a simple woven knit top, so they don’t have to do any handwork at the seams. Sure, it may look crisp and sharp in a picture with the knit tightly glued to the core, but you have to wonder how well the edges will hold up over time. How long until you feel like you’re rolling off near the edges?
