❝universal and cool❞
Christophe Lemaire gives an overview of his process in creating one of my favourite t-shirts, the Uniqlo U Crew Neck T-Shirt.
These are easy to find on Vinted, but at 15€ new, the savings generally aren't big. As Lemaire mentions, the faded colours look great even before the first wash.
To frame a discrete classic, some finds that subtly state their individuality.
A.P.C. x Carhartt Bristol Jacket
A shearling-like denim jacket that stands out by being very plain. Note: The lining is polyester.
100% wool this time. 🧠 Zag when others are zigging: get deals on your winter gear when it's starting to get warm. Thanks to the hidden placket, the unusual buttons on the pockets don't make the coat feel too heavy. At 94cm long, it might struggle to get below your knee. Where you fall on coat length depends on if you value drama and protection over not getting caught in car doors.
Zegna Shirt, Blue with White Stripes
Worn oversized and open over a white t-shirt, this classic shirt relaxes. Maybe it even becomes playful over a faded yellow t-shirt?
