A rare, authentic prison-issued shirt dating back to the late ’80s to early ’90s. This piece features a naturally cropped, boxy silhouette with a deep V-neck and short sleeves—cut for function, worn into character. The horizontal stripe pattern and original chest pocket remain intact, marked with hand-applied identification that speaks to its institutional origin.

What sets this shirt apart is the true patina: sun fade, wash wear, and uneven discoloration earned over decades, not replicated or artificially distressed. Every crease, mark, and fade tells a real story of time and use, giving the garment a raw, lived-in presence that can’t be reproduced.

Unaltered and one of a kind, this is a collectible statement piece—equal parts history and attitude—ideal for archival fashion collectors, stylists, or anyone drawn to authentic Americana with grit.
