Over more than two decades, this shirt has developed an authentic "thrashed" look highly sought after by today's vintage collectors. The naturally faded black cotton has softened with age and features dramatic bleach splatter, cracked graphics, scattered pinholes, light fabric thinning, and hem wear from genuine long-term use. The distressing is completely authentic and has not been artificially created.
