What is the “vintage fabric” found in so many item descriptions?

Unless stated otherwise, this is older fabric that’s never been previously used to make anything. I get vintage fabric from a variety of places; I buy from creative reuse stores, estate sales, occasionally thrift stores, and from private individuals. Occasionally I’ll find vintage items that are suitable for reuse- items made from used materials contain this info in their descriptions.

What kinds of fabric are used in these items?

I use a great deal of vintage fabric, and while sometimes the fiber type is known and listed in the item’s description, sometimes it’s a bit of a mystery- especially when it comes to blends and their percentages. If you have specific needs/wants/desires when it comes to fiber types, please send me a message and I’ll let you know which garments will work best for you.

About the ‘embroidered vintage’ shirts:

We collect basic vintage/second hand western shirts (many are impossible to date, we shop by style more than by age for these.

We draw things, do some editing and programming, and then sew these things onto the old shirts in our East Nashville shop.

End result is this- an old shirt reinvented. Basic made interesting. Sometimes pretty, often times funny, these shirts are a great affordable way to try out our style.

Basic measurements are listed for each shirt because vintage sizing is bonkers. When things measure far outside current norms for sizes, you’ll see a note about what size we think they should be.
