The Brace Vintage Back Sateen - Sawdust - XXL

DESCRIPTION

Inspired by the classic and rugged vintage workwear shirt, The Brace is built tough, but with the comfort you expect from Kato.
For this design, we focused on the workwear details that add durability and functionality to the garment.
Triple stitching on the shoulders, back, and side seams and the bar-tacked reinforced pockets add unparalleled strength to this men’s shirt.
The discreet and easily accessible pen pocket gives The Brace a nice utilitarian detail.
The chainstitch runoff found on the side gussets is an interesting detail and a nod to vintage shirts.
Early workwear shirts were made with authentic high-quality sewing machines that produced this run-off effect when finished.
These would usually get cut off in production but were occasionally missed.
Vintage collectors would find these rarities and they became highly sought after, not only for their rarity but because it was a true sign a shirt was made using authentic vintage sewing machines.
We make Kato work shirts following the footsteps of these vintage treasures and the chainstitch runoff is a testament to its quality and heritage.
You can choose to wear them with pride or cut them off without compromising durability.
This 13oz garment dyed back sateen fabric, is sturdier than the average sateen found on vintage fatigue shirts.
The shirt is constructed with the fabric face flipped inside for comfort and to show the subtle texture of the sateen's underside. 100% Cotton
