This WAREHOUSE & CO. Lot 4601 print T-shirt brings authentic vintage texture to everyday wear. The body is knitted on an old-fashioned, low-gauge knitting machine said to be even rarer than a loopwheel machine, using 100% cotton No. 12 slub yarn. This custom "Shadow Border" fabric creates a subtle, horizontal stripe-like unevenness in the weave, giving the material real character.
This is a special order piece requested by BEAMS PLUS, who specified the print pattern, type, and body color combinations. The printing technique varies by color: discharge printing creates a soft, blurred fade, while rubber printing cracks gradually as the fabric stretches and shrinks with wear and washing, building genuine vintage patina over time.
The neckline uses a binder neck construction with piping over the ribbed fabric for added durability. With repeated wear, it loosens slightly at the collar, settling into a classic front slope.
WAREHOUSE & CO. is dedicated to recreating the uncompromised detail and spirit of American vintage clothing, the kind of quality and character often lost to mass production. With a clean, versatile silhouette sized for authentic American casual style, this brand new T-shirt fits right into any wardrobe.
