What does “deconstructed seam stitching” add to the fit?

The collar and cuffs are finished with exposed, irregular stitching that breaks the hard edge of a standard hem. It adds a casual, layered look without changing the garment’s structure or causing fraying.

How does the waffle knit affect the print and breathability?

The raised grid creates a textured surface that the thin screen print settles into, leaving the recesses of the waffle unblocked. Air still moves through the fabric – cool, light, and breathable even with graphic coverage.

What is the “garment wash” doing to the final piece?

The wash softens the initially crisp waffle fabric, reduces color saturation, and creates subtle tonal variation across seams and high‑wear areas. It gives the tee a lived‑in softness and a natural, sun‑touched fade – no harsh chemicals, just slow effect.
