After the massive success of the Heavy Shinkai T-Shirt last year
Tanuki strike again. The GS is a classic t-shirt with a balanced silhouette
not oversized
not too slim
just perfect. Using a thick slub yarn that feels like it's hand-spun and dyed with Japanese sumi ink with many amazing shades of black and dark grey.
This is the t-shirt equivalent to your Japanese jeans: robust
indestructible
and even rope-dyed just like denim! Tanuki went all in and used yarns of different thickness and dyed them to varying degrees to create a somewhat freckled effect that will only become more pronounced with wear. Because this tee will fade beautifully over time. All the details are there too: 二 embroidery on the shoulder
reinforced blue ribs
and a lockstitch at the side seam in Tanuki blue.
They call this fabric the GYOTEN (暁天)
the night at dawn
and that's a fitting name for this dark and versatile t-shirt that will dress you well both day and night.
