【Pigment Dye】20/- Sunbreeze S/S Print T-shirt【Pottering】BR-25295

"A Perfect T-Shirt for the Peak of Summer"

While "heavy and tough" has become synonymous with BARNS OUTFITTERS, this time they've opted for a finer 20/- jersey fabric to create a T-shirt that's easy to wear even during the peak of summer heat. Although finer than their usual yarns, the 20-count yarn used here is still considered relatively thick among standard T-shirt fabrics, striking a balance between breathability and substance. This original body, designed with summer comfort in mind, is finished with BARNS OUTFITTERS signature pigment dyeing. Now returning with a new color lineup following its recent debut, this T-shirt features a beloved character from our popular "Ojisan(Old Man)"  series. Meet the "Cycling Ojisan," who enjoys a leisurely ride while keeping his eyes firmly on the “Victory” flag ahead.

"Pottering"

“Pottering” refers to a leisurely style of cycling—more like a bike-powered stroll than a competitive ride. Unlike racing or training, pottering focuses on enjoying the scenery and taking detours at one’s own pace. The term originates from the English word putter, which conveys meanings like “to dawdle” or “to take it easy,” making it a uniquely Japanese interpretation. Back for the first time in a while, the bearded gentleman known as the “Cycling Ojisan” returns from BARNS OUTFITTERS beloved “Ojisan” series. Dressed stylishly in a red hat, this laid-back character enjoys a relaxed ride without rushing. The prints are finished with a washed-out effect on the white version and a cracked effect on the American sax (blue) version, adding vintage character to each piece.

The neckline features a simple yet durable binder neck construction, making it tough enough for everyday wear.

The moderately relaxed fit strikes a perfect balance—comfortable enough to wear on its own, yet easy to layer with a shirt or cardigan.

The silhouette, adjusted in length and width for a more boxy shape, works in harmony with the fabric to allow excellent airflow—offering a breezy, effortless feel that makes this piece especially comfortable to wear.

The pigment dye creates a beautifully faded look, and when combined with the texture of the fabric, it gives the T-shirt the character of true vintage wear. With repeated wear and washing, the color continues to fade, allowing you to enjoy its unique aging process as it transforms into a one-of-a-kind piece.
