"Special Collaboration Items"

A collaboration item that will color the start of the 2024AW season has arrived. BIG MAC was born in the early 1920s as a private brand of a major American department store. At the time, it gained a lot of support from workers due to its excellent functionality and good quality, mainly focusing on workwear such as denim and heavy-ounce flannel shirts. Currently, based on the archives accumulated over its long history, it develops products with modern arrangements of silhouettes and materials. It has been reborn as a brand that is nostalgic for the generation that used to wear old clothes and new for the younger generation. This time, a long-sleeved T-shirt is released as the first collaboration with such a historic brand. The brand name is printed with a motif of the brand name used in the 1950s.

"Design inspired by the brand tag of the time"

The simple yet special design is based on the name tag of a brand that was actually used in the 1950s, with the brand name changed. The body is made of 16-count thread, giving it an exquisite original body that is neither too thick nor too thin, and the use of pigment dyeing gives it a vintage feel. The print also uses different techniques, with pigment for the white and cracked rubber for the charcoal, giving it the luxurious specifications you expect from a collaboration item.

The neck is finished with an shoulder-to-shoulder taping so that the seam allowance does not directly contact the skin for a stress-free fit and to prevent stretching. This is a specification often seen in American vintage clothing.

The basic size makes it suitable for a wide range of uses, from wearing it alone to as an inner layer.

Pigment dyeing is used to apply color to the surface of the fabric, and then the fabric is washed to recreate the faded look that is unique to vintage clothing.

Pigment dye fades with repeated wearing and washing, allowing you to enjoy the changes that occur over time.
