Type 350 "Chónchón" T-Shirt
- Loopwheeled interlock fabric knitted in Leicester, England
- Ecru (unbleached) natural cotton shows specks of cotton seed, and will fade slightly lighter over time
- Cut and sewn by hand in Leicester
- One-piece cutting pattern; there is no shoulder seam, which is the point of highest stress on the shirt and most discomfort on the wearer
- Durable, flatlock-stitched construction
- 100% cotton rib cuffs are not elasticized. Instead, they're slightly smaller than the sleeve and waist openings
- Although it takes more skill to gather and sew the shirt fabric into the smaller cuff, pure cotton cuffs won't loosen over time
- Screenprinted by hand in Leicester, England using water-based inks
- Commissioned illustration by the British/Czech artist Dorrit Dekk (b.1917), who worked for the Central Office of Information from 1946-48, producing many now-classic posters
- Dorrit's ink-and-brush painting is her interpretation of the "Chónchón" from Jorge Luis Borges' "Book Of Imaginary Beings":
"The Chónchón has the shape of a human head; its ears, which are extremely large, serve as wings for its flight on moonless nights . . . when they pass overhead intoning their ominous tué, tué, tué. . ."
