A true selvedge beast in every way treated to our vintage workshirt style. This is one you need to earn and the effort will be well worth it. The Big Slub Workshirt.
A pure beast is what we have here. Raw denim dialed up higher. It starts with true heft. 16 ounces with plenty of starch puts this one in the super heavy category. It's burly it creases beautifully with wear to set in some great fades. A dark indigo warp and crisp white weft are brought to life by extra slubby yarns. These yarns showcase a bold vintage crosshatch grain all over the surface. It's organic and intense. Nothing other than a classic red selvedge ID would do to finish this style off and we treat it to contrast stitching for an iconic denim look. This workshirt is a monster.
Our workshirts are true throwback garments. Inspired by the style's origins of utility and ruggedness. Finding fabric with the right character for this style is key and we have fresh new examples today. Each starts in truly superheavy form. Heavy cotton yarns woven loosely give this fabric the ideal balance of heft with a pliable, soft hand. It's that ideal combination we're always searching for. Color and pattern define the vintage tone. Bold color combinations featuring green with orange, blue, red and white highlights are combined in a chunky, thick plaid pattern. It's a true vintage look. Icing on the cake is the rare selvedge composition with thick red ID. This is the type of fabric you only see out of Japan and our intricately constructed workshirt gives it the showcase it deserves.
There are a number of construction details that define our workshirt. The first is ample triple needle work with a classic chain stitch runoff. Triple needle is a specialized stitch not found on a standard button downs and that serves as the heart of any good work shirt. Ours gets triple need flat felled yoke and side seams with chain stitched bottoms. We also allow the side seam chain stitch to “runoff” the end giving you three chain stitch ends on each side. We bar tack to ensure the runoff can’t compromise the security of the side seam. The second detail is double chest pockets. We keep ours a bit cleaner, without flaps, but use button closures and double bar tacks in each corner for added strength. The left chest pocket gets the addition of a small pen slot. The third detail is side hem gussets. It’s a small functional element and looks absolutely great. On our selvedge styles we incorporate the selvedge on the bottom. Finally, we love the chin strap. Ours is small enough to be tasteful while still reminding you of the work wear roots of the garment. We created new custom Corozo buttons specifically for our work shirts. Overall, this is one of our most intricately constructed garments and one of the most costly to produce.
Our workshirts will be available in our Classic and Slim fits. The main differences in details between our workshirts and our other shirting come down to construction - no back box pleat, and differently shaped side scoops. The Slim fit has a more tailored body as compared to our Classic fit. Chest and waist come in to provide a more fitted option. Details are in our fit guide now.

-Scott L. | Verified Buyer
"I wanted to tell you how much I love the rainbow nep natural t-shirts. After over a year of trying to find my everyday t-shirt, this is finally it. I have four of them now and they are basically all I wear."
-Anne F. | Verified Buyer
"So grateful for this brand! Love the fit, finish, and quality of everything I've ever bought from here. Moreover, the pricing enables people like me to have access to quality goods which are often outside of the reach of the most working people."
