The 8 ball on the chest, printed on a garment that has been pigment dyed rather than piece dyed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat pigment dyeing actually does\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe shirt is made first and dyed afterwards, with pigment that sits on the surface of the cotton rather than bonding into the fibre. That gives you a slightly uneven, washed tone from day one. It also means the colour keeps moving. Seams, creases and the collar lighten first, so the shirt you own in a year will not look like the one that arrives.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eThe 8 ball, and why it stuck\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eShawn Stussy started scrawling his signature on surfboards in Laguna Beach around 1980 and turned it into an apparel brand in 1984. The 8 ball came out of that same pool-hall and skate visual language. It is the graphic people picture when they picture the brand, and it has outlasted almost everything else in the catalogue.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFit and sizing\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRelaxed, boxy 90s cut rather than a modern slim tee\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSits wide through the chest with a straight body\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrue to size, though the cut runs generous\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCotton can shrink slightly, so size up if you are between sizes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAvailable in S, M, L and XL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWearing it\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eStraight or wide denim underneath and the shirt does the rest.
