Quick answer

Choose the Suede Jersey Studio Tee for a structured, dry hand and boxy cropped fit. Pick the Air Spun Shrunken Tee for a softer, broken-in feel with a slim vintage silhouette.

Fabric feel and construction

The Suede Jersey Studio Tee uses a micro-brushed and peached long-staple cotton from Japan, giving it a dry, supple hand with subtle texture. It feels structured yet soft, designed to hold its shape while offering lived-in comfort from the start.

In contrast, the Air Spun Shrunken Tee is crafted from recycled yarn with a looser knit construction, creating a naturally textured surface and a softer, more relaxed hand. It is meant to feel broken-in from day one, with a subtle slub character that adds visual interest.

Fit differences

The Suede Jersey Studio Tee features a boxy fit with a cropped length and dropped shoulders, giving it a modern, oversized silhouette. This makes it ideal for layering or wearing as a statement piece.

The Air Spun Shrunken Tee has a slim, shrunken fit with a shorter body length, inspired by vintage tees. It sits closer to the body and works well for a more streamlined, classic look.
