Oakland Tiger Long Sleeve

the king of shirts 👑

Oakland is a place with unique weather. It's hot in the sun and cold in the shade. During the day, a hoodie might be too much, but a thin t-shirt might be too little. That's why the long sleeve is the king of shirts.

The long sleeve is both an essential and functional piece. It offers more mobility than a hoodie, cuts the wind, and can be layered with a t-shirt or a thermal underneath for most days year round.

Washed with a special enzyme solution giving it a natural vintage finish, our super premium 100% cotton shirt feels absolutely great on the skin. The natural fibers lets your body breathe. Our shirt is 310 grams per square meter, which is considered ultra heavyweight. Unlike a lighter shirt, this heavyweight oversized long sleeve drapes your body beautifully and naturally.

This shirt will be in your wardrobe for decades to come. Not only will it stand up to years of wear, but the shirt itself will only get softer over time, giving off that true vintage patina.

This piece has no logos, inside or out. Just a super clean front with a stunning visual statement on the back.

the back:
The Oak tree is a hard wood tree. Like the Oak, the children of such a place can only grow deep roots, just like the land in which they come from. This is the symbolism of our town.

On the back, you'll see a big Oak, along with two heron birds and one tiger. The three animals represent the past, present, and future.

The first bird represents the past, which is in flight. It's gone. And the other bird represents the future, which lies in wait. You'll see these heron birds bopping around Lake Merritt, especially at night.

The tiger represents the present moment, a spirit that holds the 3 keys to your past, present, and future. With those keys, you'll be able to unlock all the secrets and mysteries of your life.

fit:
This shirt runs true to size for an oversized shirt. If you usually wear large, get a large. The fit will be oversized, which is the look for this shirt. Go a size bigger for a bolder oversized statement. Check the sizing chart below for exact measurements.

wash:
Make sure to wash in cold water. It's always best to hang dry. Iron your shirt flipped inside out, and never iron directly on the print. This will make sure your shirt lasts for decades to come.
