Graphic tees

Heavyweight cotton, screenprints and archive graphics from independent labels.

Graphic tees anchor daily dressing through heavyweight cotton jersey, bold motifs and relaxed cuts built for women and men. Deep black, crisp white and navy cloth carries screenprints alongside deconstructed trims. Loose silhouettes balance clean lines across every layer.

Streetwear culture emerged from skate parks, punk clubs and Tokyo backstreets across the eighties and nineties. Jun Takahashi sang in a Sex Pistols cover band in Tokyo before he started Undercover, and punk still runs through its prints. Rhuigi Villasenor started Rhude in Los Angeles, and it has worked with the McLaren racing team. Chrome Hearts built a devoted following by pairing leather cross patches and sterling silver hardware with gothic lettering.

T shirts, tops and long sleeves partner naturally with wide denim or pleated wool trousers. Utopia in Toronto carries most of the wall: Chrome Hearts, Aime Leon Dore, Balenciaga and Supreme. WDLT117 adds Song for the Mute and Undercover, and Outlined adds Bape and Stussy.

Common questions

How do you wear graphic tees with tailored trousers?

Pair an oversized cotton print with pleated wool trousers and leather loafers to contrast casual jersey against sharp tailoring. Drop the hem straight or tuck the front loosely into high waisted pants.

Where do graphic tees come from?

Screenprinted shirts developed from surf culture, punk rock bands and hip hop crews across the late twentieth century. Musicians sold merchandise at concerts while skate shops printed local logos on blank cotton tops.

Which designers make graphic tees?

Undercover makes punk inspired shirts with distressed details. Rhude, from Los Angeles, has worked with the McLaren racing team. Chrome Hearts produces heavyweight tops marked with gothic typography and cross motifs.
