Crafted from a unique blend of recycled and organic cotton, this t-shirt features a soft, bouncy feel with a naturally uneven slub texture. The hand-dye process results in a rich, deep color while maintaining a lightweight yet dense structure. With a modern athletic fit and special construction techniques, this piece embodies both comfort and style. Perfect for casual wear or layering, it adds a touch of sophistication to any wardrobe.
From the brand: Nothing wasted, nothing compromised. The ELS Recycled Cotton Slub is built from a three-way blend: light, airy recycled cotton from yarn-spinning factories, recycled cotton from the offcuts of Wonder Looper's own Double Heavyweight T-shirt, and luxurious Extra Long Staple organic cotton. Knit at low tension and slow speed, the result is a fabric that's soft and bouncy yet dense and full of character — with a naturally uneven slub surface that gives it a warmth and depth well beyond its 280 GSM weight.
Same Amami process, pushed as far as it goes. Color begins with a warm, rosy Sharinbai tannin dye, then moves to dorozome, but where the standard version sees a single mud stage, the Max is immersed in iron-rich mud again and again. Each cycle bonds more mineral into the fiber and darkens the shade, building layer by layer to a near-black. It's the same hand-done, time-intensive technique; the depth is the result of repetition. As with all the slub tees, the uneven texture keeps the color from appearing flat.
