Materials
What We Start With.
Heavyweight cotton and cotton-blend fleece, 200 to 530gsm. The weight is the point.
How We Choose Fabric
Weight You Can Feel.
Most streetwear is cut from 180gsm jersey. This line starts at 200gsm and runs to 530gsm, a pure cotton dense enough that you feel it the moment you put it on. Heavy fabric holds a silhouette, and holding a silhouette is what separates a garment from a t-shirt.
Two families carry the collection. Pure cotton, combed and garment-dyed, from the 260gsm tee through 400gsm mineral-washed cotton to the 530gsm hoodie and sweatpant. And cotton-blend fleece, from 350gsm through the 390gsm vintage-wash capsule up to a 500gsm short. Performance pieces use a nylon or polyester stretch knit, because compression needs a different fibre.
Every weight and every fibre content is printed on the product page. If it is not listed there, we do not claim it.
