WESTRIDE「PT.TEE.25-03」

This is a new work that is sure to become a hit, with a catchy and pop graphic that encapsulates the spirit of "YIELD = mutual compromise". Along with KNUCKLE's popular character THUNDER CAT, the message "Be careful, cats will be passing by on this road!!" is drawn. The word "YIELD" is not often seen here in Japan, but it is often seen on traffic signs in the United States, including school zones when going to and from school, and is a basic traffic rule.

The design art is by LITTLE CHOP DESIGN's "KNUCKLE". A lowbrow artist living in Gifu. He is a top artist with the best skills and sense in Japan, especially in airbrush art and sculpture art, and is extremely popular. He is active worldwide, having worked on the prototypes of official figures for AC/DC, SUICIDAL TENDENCIES, and others. Every year, he holds his own art show "MONSTER FAN CLUB", where he continues to fascinate fans with his unique worldview. He creates artwork at various custom shows and events, and is a talented artist with many customers all over the country.

Sewing: WESTRIDE's original TEE is knitted on a round-body hanging machine → split the sides and sewn with double seams → cut the seam allowance on the inside side → triple-bind the neck. This is a very time-consuming process. This process prevents the round-body from losing its shape and makes it comfortable to the touch. Since the TEE also serves as underwear, we are particular about not only the print pattern but also the quality itself.
Printing method: Regarding the printing method, even for the same design, the base color, print color, and print design are considered one by one, and the best one is selected and printed by hand. (Water-based dyeing, half rubber, discharge printing, cracking, etc.)
Print design: Each graphic has its own message and story. One of the fun things about wearing the design is to look at the background of them at the same time. The design is mainly front print and back print, and is put together with artwork that is typical of WESTRIDE. Items with a front design can be layered with a vest, shirt and jacket, while items with a back design can be paired with top accessories. This lineup is designed to allow you to fully enjoy fashion. We are also constantly incorporating new materials and techniques for prints and inks to create more expressive designs.
