I think t-shirts are great, but I think t-shirts that are a collaboration between us and a Canadian jacket manufacturer (who operate from a basement on a main shopping street in Edmonton) are even better. This t-shirt marks the third installment of the TRiCKETT x Kluane ongoing project where I make lots of nice things and Dylan from Kluane nods his head in agreement and we call it a collab.
Kluane’s jacket are beautifully made and super warm, however the weather isn’t always like that, even in Accrington, so we decided that for spring/summer we needed something a little less hardcore and here it is, our t-shirt. This t-shirt is the European exclusive in that it has a duck wearing a jacket looking up at a mountain in the shape of the Kluane logo. This one is only available from us and features a super complex screenprint. Above the duck are the words ‘get down with’ as a play on the words of the type of down that will be filling our jackets that come out in a few months. Canadian duck down is amongst the best in the world, but if you prefer a goose on your t-shirt, you can get the North American variant from Kluane here.
The t-shirts are made in Canada (like all of Kluane’s jackets) and then they are printed by master printer Jim in Huddersfield. The t-shirts are made from a mid-weight, white, soft cotton jersey that already feels like it has been washed a few times before you get it. That way you can pretend that you have known about Edmonton’s finest jacket makers for years… Don’t worry, we won’t tell anyone.
So now you can wear Kluane all year round and even pretend that you have an encyclopaedic knowledge of outdoor jacket brands and that is really all we need.
