This style of neck opening is the Zip Front Stand Collar. What this means is that it has
a zipper, and the stand collar, if you'll recall, as I've explained before, a stand
collar does exactly that. It's a piece that does not fold over, it just stands on itself,
or it stands in itself. And in order to have it be a Zip Front Stand Collar, I have shown
that we have some reinforcement, or some ribbing. Typically it's going to be out of rib knit,
because that's just the best - that's the best fabric around, just in general, in order
to make the stand collars. Especially if, since you have a zipper there, you're showing
this is probably going to be in a fabric that either a) lends itself to stretch or movement
or b) doesn't. It's either two - it's once extreme or the other, and the ribbing part
of the knit just holds itself together well no matter what the bottom part is. It holds
its shape, and therefore you can have a zipper that you use stress and you tug on, and it's
not going to stretch out of shape.
