The Outlierman, makers of handcrafted luxury automotive inspired accessories, has introduced all-new limited-edition t-shirts to its Portrait Collection.
Following popular customer demand, the Italian driving accessories company has launched two all-new t-shirts which incorporate two of its
most iconic designs – the ‘356’s Portrait’, based on the Porsche
356, and the ‘E-Type’s Portrait’, centred around the Jaguar
E-Type.
Limited to just 50 examples of each design, every piece features an authentic automotive art portrait created by The Outlierman’s talented design team, characterised by vivid brushstrokes and enriched by title and signature, for an even more exclusive result. Printed on a 100% silk
satin patch that becomes the protagonist of a garment, with an elegant
fit and versatile design, the t-shirt is suitable for free time as well
as being worn under a jacket for an original and distinctive smart
casual outfit.
A garment with comfort and exquisite aesthetic performance, each item is
crafted using Lisle Cotton Yarn, the noblest variety of cotton yarns,
produced by working the best long linden fibres with two or more twisted
edges to obtain a soft and naturally shiny weave. Lisle Cotton Yarn owes
its extraordinary breathable, anti-allergic and antibacterial properties
to the use of a very fine cotton coming from the delta of the Nile river
and processed according to a particular technique that has been handed
down since 1850.
Meanwhile, silk satin is a fabric with a thousand-year history, capable
of enhancing the chromatic choices of our designers thanks to an
exquisitely shiny and uniform surface. The extraordinary brightness
properties of this natural yarn are a precise choice of our designers,
aimed at enhancing the chiaroscuro features and the expressiveness of
the colours to create vivid designs like those of the Italian masters.
Andrea Mazzuca, CEO and founder of The Outlierman, said: “I’m
thrilled to be able to share our all-new limited-edition t-shirts with
our customers, featuring two of the most iconic designs from The
Outlierman, which are works of art to wear and collect. Replicated in
only 50 copies, these t-shirts are an authentic collector’s rarity and
are the result of a 100% Made in Italy know-how: sketched, designed,
produced and tailored in Italy by Italian talents.
“As one of the most recognisable cars in the world, the Jaguar E-Type
is the pinnacle of automotive design and a car that will forever be
associated with the swinging sixties. The Porsche 356 helped form the
foundations for the marque as its first production vehicle, contributed
to Porsche’s motorsports success and increased the brand’s
popularity prior to the release of the 911.”
Customers can combine their limited edition t-shirts with other items
from both the 356’s Portrait and the E-Type’s Portrait collections,
such as a handmade cashmere and silk square scarf, a 100% twill silk bow
tie, a 100% habotai silk pocket square and a 100% habotai silk scarf –
all made in Italy.
