About: Pinstripes

An Entity of Type: Thing, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Pinstripes are a pattern of very thin stripes of any color running in parallel often found in fashion. The pinstripe is often compared to the similar chalk stripe. Pinstripes are very thin, often 1⁄30 inch (0.85 mm) in width, and are created with one single-warp yarn. References to pinstripes can be found in Chaucer's Canterbury Tales, where the Sergeant at the Law is described as wearing "a homely parti-coloured coat girt with a silken belt of pin-stripe stuff". Pinstripes have been found on suits since the early 19th century. They were used by banks in London to identify their employees.

  • Jehlový proužek (angl.: pinstripe, něm.: Nadelstreifen) je vzor (nejčastěji) vlnařské tkaniny zpravidla s tmavým podkladem, na kterém jsou zřetelně viditelné velmi jemné, světlé proužky. Tkanina se vyrábí ve čtyřvazném kepru, obvykle z česané příze, proužky tvoří jednotlivé osnovní niti pravidelně nebo i nepravidelně rozmístěné ve vzdálenosti 0,5–3 cm od sebe. Povrch tkaniny je hladký. Podobný vzor je tzv. křídový proužek. Proužky připomínají čáry bílou křídou, často širší než u jehlového vzoru a méně výrazné. Tkanina je většinou jemně počesaná na způsob flanelu. (cs)
  • Pinstripes are a pattern of very thin stripes of any color running in parallel often found in fashion. The pinstripe is often compared to the similar chalk stripe. Pinstripes are very thin, often 1⁄30 inch (0.85 mm) in width, and are created with one single-warp yarn. Although found mostly in men's suits, any type of fabric can be pinstriped. Pinstripes were originally worn only on suit pants but upon being adopted in America during the 20th century they were also used on suit jackets. The Chicago Cubs' baseball uniforms have had pinstripes since 1907 and they are recognized as the first Major League Baseball team to incorporate pinstriping into a baseball uniform Many other former and current Major League Baseball teams—including the Florida Marlins, Minnesota Twins, Montreal Expos, Colorado Rockies, New York Mets, New York Yankees, Chicago White Sox, Detroit Tigers, Philadelphia Phillies, Houston Astros and the San Diego Padres—later adopted pinstripes on their own uniforms. The Yankees, in particular, are associated with the pattern. This was later carried over into the National Basketball Association, with teams like the Chicago Bulls, Charlotte Hornets and Orlando Magic incorporating pinstripes into their uniforms. In baseball lingo, the term "wearing pinstripes" has become synonymous with being a member of the Yankees, despite other teams using them in their uniforms. References to pinstripes can be found in Chaucer's Canterbury Tales, where the Sergeant at the Law is described as wearing "a homely parti-coloured coat girt with a silken belt of pin-stripe stuff". Pinstripes have been found on suits since the early 19th century. They were used by banks in London to identify their employees. (en)
  • Il gessato è un motivo costituito da righe verticali larghe quanto uno spillo. Nato sul finire del diciannovesimo secolo, raggiunse il suo massimo grado di popolarità negli anni 1930. Deve il suo nome al fatto che siccome normalmente si parla di righe bianche o bianco sporco su sfondo scuro, è simile al gesso su una lavagna. (it)

  • Kritstrecksrandig kallas ett tyg som är randigt med en huvudfärg och mycket smala invävda ränder i en eller ett par andra färger. Namnet har tyget fått, för att de smala strecken, som ofta är vita mot en mörk bakgrund, påminner om strecken som en krita kan göra på en svart tavla. Kritstrecksrandigt tyg används ofta till kostymer. (sv)
