80s CASUALS T-SHIRT BOOK





Just over a year ago now we catalogued an ever growing collection of 80s Casuals T-Shirts with the idea of producing a commemorative book of the best designs. As with all book projects, this will take us some time, but we now have together a selection of some of the earliest pieces to produce a small booklet in time for Christmas.
The T-Shirts shown here were from the 2004 year. A year when the print was a single colour on the front and the reverse had 80s Casuals at the top by the neck. There was no embroidery and the only place to buy them was at Tessuti in Chester or if you were lucky one or two would appear on Ebay.
The idea now is to have approximately 40 of these designs photographed and then we can put together a small book showcasing the first few years of our existence.
