Benzak – BWS-02 UTILITY SHIRT 9 Oz. Wabash Indigo Selvedge Canvas

The BWS-02 UTILITY SHIRT is inspired on vintage workwear aesthetics. The shirt is following a regular cut with simple, yet functional detailing. It features two chest pockets, of which one is equipped with a pen compartment. The silhouette’s shorter body promotes a casual, relaxed look, and is designed to be worn untucked.

 FABRIC
The first known version of the ‘indigo wabash stripe’ was made by a company called J.L. Stiefl & Sons. The name of the wabash striped pattern finds its origin in the Wabash Confederacy, a Native American tribe that lived in an area covering the current US states of Illinois, Indiana and Ohio. Indigo wabash stripe fabrics are typically known for their durability and were used in hard labour as the fabric for workwear garments. Our 9 oz. WABASH INDIGO SELVEDGE CANVAS is constructed in the same way as out 9 oz. duck brown counterpart, except this version is indigo yarn-dyed and has the distinctive printed white dot stripe pattern. Woven by Collect Mills in Japan.
