Stussy Skate Posse Pigment Dyed T Shirt Purple

The Stussy Skate Posse Pigment Dyed T Shirt Purple is one of the pieces people search for by name, and it earns that. Skate Posse references the crews that carried Stussy through the late 1980s, when the brand spread by word of mouth rather than advertising. Pigment dyeing sits colour on the surface of the cotton rather than bonding it into the fibre, then the garment is washed afterwards. It arrives already softened with a faded, lived-in tone instead of a flat block colour. Purple is among the least common shades Stussy runs, which is most of its appeal. Heavier cotton than a standard tee, which stops a large graphic pulling the fabric out of shape. The shirts outsold the surfboards, which is how a board shaper ended up formalising a clothing label in 1984.

Fit. Boxy through the chest with a short body, cut to the same 1990s pattern as the hoodies. US sizing, so it wears wider and shorter than a UK equivalent. Order your usual size, or size up if you want length.

Styling. Keep the rest simple and let the print do the work.

Care. Wash inside out at 30 degrees with similar colours. No bleach, no softener. Air dry and iron on the reverse only, never across the graphic.
