Authentic vintage vibes with premium Japanese fabric and construction from Warehouse!
Every season, Warehouse continues to amaze us with some of the most amazing vintage tee designs!
Originating as athletic wear in the 1940s and 1950s, ringer tees subsequently became a staple in youth subculture and fashion during the ‘60s and ‘70s. The Vikings are the basketball team for Teays Valley School District in Ohio, USA. Warehouse has faithfully recreated these iconic tees, with authentic graphic designs from the past, to produce this highly collectible casual tee!
The specially developed fabric has strong horizontal textures that resemble the segments on a bamboo stalk. Thanks to the slow weaving process on vintage machines, the fabric has an elastic, comfortable texture while remaining highly breathable for everyday wear! Each knitting machine has to work at a very slow pace and can only produce enough fabric for 10 T-shirts per day! The design is skillfully screen printed to create a soulful "New Vintage" look, which will only get better with age as it crackles and fades!
With extra-heavy ribbed collars and sleeve openings, these are a unique look with a tastefully subtle appearance. With a slim fit and a snugly-fitted sleeve opening, these are great for a casual look!
If you're looking for some classic vintage-inspired graphic tees, these are a great choice!
