Part of whats fun about vintage clothing is how one-off the garments are. Theyve been used and abused and the fades, scratches, cuts, and more set it apart from all others. Aprs Vlo makes these new, fresh out of the bag t-shirts one-off thanks to their screen printing, their garment dying, and heavy acid washing. New-vintage, contemporary-classic, modern-old school, theyre new but timeless. And theyre fun and expressive, shirts that youll remember wearing, others will remember seeing.
Aprs Vlo starts with 100% cotton jersey. They then dye the garment. When that has set and dried, they apply the screened design. When that has set, they then put the shirt in heavy acid bath with other shirts. The process tumbles the shirts around, adding a certain distressing to the colors, and then they take it out. Each shirt comes out looking different than it did going in, and each shirt looks different than the others because of the way the washing works. There will be uneven fading, there will be extra-soft hand, and the garment will be pre-shrunk and the colors set even better than they were before.
Its a new-old look that is bespoke in character. Each shirt is unique, a classic, something no one else has. And, when you combine the luxurious comfort, its hard to turn down, or not pull out of your drawer.
