Material / 100% COTTON
These products draw inspiration from the utilitarian workwear, military wear, and sportswear that endured in 20th-century America, as well as the vintage clothing culture that emerged afterward. Their value lies not in the perfection of a brand-new item, but in the color, wrinkles, stains, and traces of repairs that result from long-term use by someone.
Even from the catalog images, you can see that the key feature of these items is the uneven character—such as stitching, scuffing along the edges, and variations in color caused by body movement—that can only be found in vintage clothing that has been worn for many years.Rather than creating a perfectly polished reissue, we first envision a state where the owner’s lifestyle and usage have been imprinted on the garment over time, and we assemble the product as a brand-new item that incorporates even these “traces of time.”
Moleskin is a tightly woven cotton fabric characterized by a smooth texture—achieved by lightly brushing the surface—and durability.This work shirt recreates the legacy of America—which adapted this fabric, originally introduced to the U.S. from European workwear in the early 1900s, into zip-front work shirts—through vintage details, including grommet fasteners.
