Essentials 1977 Olive Green T Shirt

Olive leans into the workwear side of the palette and sits comfortably against black and stone. 1977 is Jerry Lorenzo's birth year, and putting it across the chest turned a personal detail into the line's signature graphic. It is the piece most people picture when they search for Essentials. Heavier cotton than a standard tee, with the logo kept small so the shape does the work rather than the graphic. The palette is the point: Essentials stays within a narrow band of muted tones, which is why pieces layer with each other so easily.

Fit. Same oversized template as the hoodies, wide through the body with dropped shoulders. Order your usual size. Sizing up adds width faster than length, so you end up closer to square than oversized.

Styling. It sits under an open hoodie, under a jacket, or on its own with nothing else needed.

Care. Cold wash inside out, no bleach or softener. Air dry rather than tumble. Wash pale tones separately from darks, as cotton this light picks up colour transfer easily.
