Vintage Baseball Shirts
One vintage baseball shirt I recently acquired.
It is a pullover type shirt with buttonhole detail on the cuffs. This specification is unique to shirts from the 1910s. This is a rare piece of clothing that truly tells the story of the era.
The sleeves have detachable buttons at the ends for practical use as long-sleeved shirts. Such functional beauty reminds us of how ingenious sportswear of the time was.
In this period, buttonhole sewing machines were just beginning to be put to practical use for mass-produced products. Buttons were also attached by machine, and we are tickled by the details that show the evolution of technology at that time.
Felt letters are carefully stitched on the chest, creating a rugged and tasteful atmosphere unique to American vintage.
The most impressive feature of this item is the twisted twisted yarn used for the fabric. It has a rough and unique texture, and you can feel the feel of the material as if you were holding it in your hand.
I have a feeling that this piece of clothing will be the starting point for some interesting projects. How can we make use of the accumulation of time in the form of vintage clothing in the modern age? Thinking of this, I am quietly excited.
