FAQs
Q: What are the benefits of the extended scooped back design? A: The back hemline is intentionally elongated and curved (scooped) to provide extra coverage and comfort during movement, stretching, or bending. It ensures the vest sits perfectly during workouts while creating a flattering, fluid silhouette for casual streetwear line-ups.
Q: What is the difference between choosing a bound finish versus a raw-edge finish? A: The bound option adds a durable fabric trim around the neck and armholes, framing the garment cleanly (and allowing for contrasting trim colors). The raw-edge finish leaves the fabric cut clean without binding, which rolls slightly after washing to deliver a rugged, unpolished streetwear edge.
Q: Why does the fabric weight vary between the solid colors and the melanges? A: Our solid colors use a breathable, mid-weight 160gsm single jersey cotton, whereas our specialized Charcoal, Denim, and Indigo Melange options are knit at 145gsm. This slight adjustment ensures that the multi-tone blended yarns maintain an exceptionally soft, premium hand-feel without losing their structural strength.
