A garment having a plurality of seams, comprising:
- a first seam line;
- a second seam line that extends to the first seam line from one direction;
- and
- a third seam line that extends to the first seam line from an opposite direction to the one direction, wherein
- the first seam line, the second seam line, and the third seam line are sewn with thread,
- an end of the second seam line and an end of the third seam line are located at different positions on the first seam line,
- the second seam line and the third seam line are directly continuous with each other,
- the second seam line and the third seam line are formed around a tubular portion in a circumferential direction thereof,
- a fabric having a main stretch direction, said fabric comprising a first fabric portion and a second fabric portion, said first fabric portion and said second fabric portion directly adjacent to the second seam line and the third seam line and on opposing sides of the second seam line and third seam line, said first fabric portion and said second fabric portion being seamed by the second seam line and the third seam line, said main stretch direction being in an orthogonal direction with respect to the first seam line, and
- the second seam line and the third seam line define lines that are oblique with respect to the main stretch direction.
