3-PACK TEE

Product number: 80460021050

Each of the three sheets is made in a different era and using a twisting method, and each has a design that matches the era and manufacturing method. Nigel Cabourn's classic pack T-shirt with attention to detail.

Nigel Cabourn uses original fabrics for most of his products.
When the thread itself that forms the basis of the fabric is ready-made and does not serve his purpose, it is not uncommon for him to start making thread. 　
Even T-shirts are no exception for him who loves vintage.
A ring that appeared in the 1830s based on the idea that ``If we are going to make a three-pack of T-shirts, let's express the difference in spinning and the resulting difference in comfort.'' The ultimate pack T is made with three types of fabrics from different eras: spinning, air spinning in the 1950s, and the latest vortex spinning invented in Japan, with designs that suit each.
It's a little different from the pack T that usually contains the same items.
It's amazing that this can be purchased for around 10,000 yen.


No.1-Air Spinning - V-Neck Pocket T
In the 1950s, an innovative method completely different from the principle of ring spinning was invented. Ta.
The principle of air spinning can be easily understood by imagining a clothes dryer rotating at high speed.
As the short fibers rotate in the air vortex, centrifugal force causes the outside of the yarn to become denser and harder.
And when the thread is cut into rounds, the density in the center is less compared to the outer shell.
In other words, it is comfortable to wear and has a firmness.
The hardness is in the microscopic world of the cross section of the thread, so it does not mean that it is hard and uncomfortable to wear.
The moderately stiff yarn provides a smooth and comfortable fit, and the dense yarn surface quickly absorbs sweat and releases it as it moves away from the body.
The design is from the 1950s vintage.

No.2.-Ring Spinning - Crew Neck
Sliver (a lump like absorbent cotton with only the short fibers aligned in the direction before spinning) is made into a coarse thread. The material is pulled out with a roller, passed through a metal ring that rotates around the bobbin, and wound onto the bobbin.
At this time, the bobbin itself rotates at high speed, so the thread is twisted by the movement and speed of both.
Although the oldest type of spinning, ring spinning continues to be passed down to modern times.　
Since 200 years have passed since its invention, machines have evolved significantly and the speed, precision, and quality have improved dramatically, but the principle of spinning remains the same both when it was first invented and today.
As if to demonstrate the universal spinning principle itself, the T-shirts are netted with ring-spun yarn, and have an extremely orthodox feel and a ``normal'' touch in a good sense.
The design is based on vintage from the 1800s, in line with the oldest spinning techniques.

No.3-Vortex Spinning - Shallow Crew Neck
In contrast to air spinning, which spins by rough swirling of air accompanied by centrifugal force, short fibers of more than 10 mm are used. A major feature is that the behavior of each individual strand is controlled by the swirling flow of air.
Short fibers are placed on a fine jet stream, and the tips of the short fibers converge toward the center of the yarn in an almost untwisted state, while the other ends are twisted so as to sneak into the outer shell of the yarn itself.
This dramatically eliminates the loss of the thread's shape, and by suppressing fuzz to the utmost, the thread is extremely smooth to the touch.
This is the comfort of yarn that can only be created with Japan's latest technology.
The design is also the most appropriate for modern times.

Please enjoy the comfort and design with different characteristics due to the three types of spinning.

It will be delivered in the original box.

Who is Nigel Cabourn
British and world-renowned collector of vintage military, workwear, and outdoor wear. A collection by designer Nigel Cabourn.
Inspired by a vintage collection of more than 4,000 pieces that he has collected over 30 years, his collections are timeless and reinvented into something new.
It is very distinctive that Nigel himself divides his own designs into British production (authentic line) and Japanese production (main line).
The former mainly uses British-derived materials such as Harris Tweed and Ventile, and includes items produced at Mackintosh factories and Scottish knitting factories, while the latter includes unique fabrics that can only be made in Japan. By sorting out items that utilize dyeing and processing techniques that are impossible to achieve, we create a collection that cannot be found anywhere else.
