"STANDARD" 18/- OE Tough neck S/S Print T-shirt【Limited Item】BR-25281

"The Ideal Solution for Durable Daily Wear"

This item, designed with the concepts of "resistance to stretching" and "long-lasting durability", has been incredibly popular since its debut. Crafted from a moderately thick, irregularly textured yarn, it offers both comfort and strength. While it has undergone minor changes each season as a staple item, it has now been decided that the fabric and specifications used with the 18/-OE fabric will continue to be used in the future, making it a truly timeless standard. As a special item for this season, the design is vividly rendered using multi-color printing. A design inspired by retro cigarette packaging.

The fabric is wrapped in a trumpet-like swirl, incorporating both the main body and ribbing, with a double binder sewn around the entire 360 degrees. Due to the special nature of this design, each piece is carefully sewn by experienced craftsmen, ensuring meticulous attention to detail.

"CAPTAIN CIGARETTES"

In the 1970s, dramatic advances in printing technology expanded the range of expression, leading many companies to adopt vibrant multi-color printing for advertising and promotional materials—something that had been difficult to achieve before. Shining a spotlight on that era, BARNS OUTFITTERS has released a vivid and colorful special item using an impressive seven-print process on the front alone. Featuring a skull with an eye patch and a cigarette in its mouth, the bold design evokes classic American outlaw culture. The artwork, reminiscent of vintage cigarette packaging, adds a unique, retro touch. For printing, the white version uses a wash-out finish, while the black version features a cracked finish—each selected to enhance the vintage appeal.

Thanks to the 360-degree double binder stitching, this design not only adds a stylish accent but also results in a tough, durable piece that embodies the ideal BARNS OUTFITTERS spirit. This construction effectively minimizes neck stretching and distortion, common issues with T-shirts.

The armholes are designed with extra room for better airflow, and combined with the dry texture of the fabric, this piece becomes an ideal choice for the hottest summer days, offering both comfort and breathability.

The length is designed to match the relaxed fit, creating a boxy silhouette that complements the wide body. This design reflects the modern aesthetic that BARNS OUTFITTERS envisions.

The OE (Open End) yarn, spun using air-spinning technology, has uneven fibers that trap more air, giving it a unique coarse and dry texture. This rugged, tough feel of the fabric is a hallmark of the BARNS OUTFITTERS style, adding to its authenticity and durability.
