The fabric of the shirt is a reproduction of a piece of indigo cloth from the 1880s, with minor modifications to give it its original appearance. The cloth was made in the United States and exported to Africa, where it was later found by an American retro enthusiast. The printing pattern is seemingly simple, but it is not easy to produce. It was tried in four print dye factory, the depth of the bottom dye, the number of dyeing, the temperature and time of washing, and the previous debugging of the cloth sample for many times, so that the current satisfactory effect was achieved.
