Vissla Swelligans Pocket Tee, a pigment dyed cotton pocket tee
If you have been hunting for a Vissla pocket tee with some texture and character, the Swelligans delivers. It is cut in a 20 singles modern crewneck fit with a real chest pocket and a back screen print, then pigment dyed and garment soft washed so the color and hand feel are both a little worn in from day one.
Materials and construction
- 20 singles modern crewneck fit with pocket and back screen print
- Pigment dyed construction
- Side seam woven label and garment soft wash
- 100% cotton
Pigment dyeing applies color after the garment is sewn, which is why pigment dyed tees like this one tend to fade in a soft, natural way rather than looking flat and uniform over time.
Who it is for
The Swelligans suits anyone who wants a tee with a little more going on than a plain crew, whether that is a day around the shop, a trip to the beach, or just everyday South Florida wear where a chest pocket comes in handy for sunglasses or a receipt from the surf shop. The 20 singles cotton gives it a heavier, more substantial hand than a thin summer tee.
Wear, care, and break in
Because the tee is already garment soft washed, it starts with a broken in feel and softens further with normal washing. Wash it cool and dry on low heat to protect the back screen print and the side seam woven label, and to keep the 100% cotton from shrinking out of its cut. As with most pigment dyed garments, expect the color to mellow slightly with repeated washing, which is part of the look.
