Length 24.5" (62cm)

100% Cotton
Excellent



This blank T-shirt from the 1950s features a wide boat neck and sleeves at right angles to the body. The material is 100% cotton, and due to the characteristics of the knitting machines of the time, the fine fibers are knitted loosely, so the hem may become twisted when washed, and the hot surface texture of the fabric is different compared to T-shirts made today. The overall feeling of use and small holes are present, but combined with the unique texture of the material, they are rather a point of interest in the design.
