We are proud to announce the release of our brand new loopwheeled t-shirts!
The shirts are made just a few doors down from our head office in Montreal in an old family run factory that have been knitting circular fabric and sewing t-shirts and underwear for 70 years. Both the fabric and sewing is all done on site. The loopwheeling/circular knitting machines are the original ones they have been using for decades. We love the old-world quality and heritage behind their garments.
The fit is a 1950s style “Muscle T” with fitted short sleeves and of course a tubular body. The body and collar have no seams as the fabric is circular knit.
The yarn is a double ring-spun cotton and is nice and soft and heavy too. We are starting with 4 great basic colors: White, Pale Grey, Dark Indigo and Black.




Check out some photos of the factory in the 1950s… It still looks like this now! (minus the vintage haircuts…)
