Description
Shirt made from old Chinese packing cloth I found in the street. Patch-worked them all together. Mixed tailoring and raw edges together. Easy-peasy.

Wow! I love the tailored “tattered” look. That fabric is awesome. I really want one. You are an inspiration. What a fresh look in men’s wear. Keep it up.
