INFO
This top is made from scrap pieces of denim used in the construction of commissions throughout the process of curating the collection. The top is composed of premium grade 10-ounce 100% cotton denim, marine-grade 316L stainless steel hardware, high-quality threads, and elastics. Due to the quality of the materials used, this top can be submerged in water, including saltwater, for prolonged periods of time.
The front of the top is composed of a patchwork piece of denim that wraps around the chest, extends underneath the arms and acts as a holster top. On the front top side, there are elastics looping through D-rings, which then attach to elastic straps that wrap around to the back. The sides are strapped to each other, wrapping the top around the torso. All straps, including the shoulder straps of this top, are completely adjustable with sliders to fit a broader spectrum of body shapes.

CLEANING & CARE
Hand wash with warm water and laundry soap; avoid rough abrasions against the fabric. Gently wring out the wet garment. Hang it up to air dry. Since the material is thick, it may take some time for the garment to dry completely. Store the damp garment in a warm, dry area until it is fully dry. Once dry, you can press and steam it if necessary. You can also use starch to stiffen the material if desired
STORAGE
When the garment is dry and ready to be set aside for storage, you have two options: folding or hanging. Hanging is the preferred choice as it allows the fibers to naturally align with gravity and stay in sync with each other. However, if you choose to fold, keep in mind that denim holds creases well but may require steaming or pressing to remove any wrinkles.
For archival storage, fold the garment into a desired, even-sized square that fits inside an airtight vacuum-sealed bag. Once sealed, store it in light-tight containers, making sure there are no objects that can puncture the bag.
When you're ready to remove the garment from archival storage, release the air slowly, allowing the fabric to expand naturally without any irritation. Once the fabric has stopped expanding with air, open the bag and remove the clothing to hang. Hanging will naturally allow the fibers to align with the pattern and drape correctly. From there, you can proceed with the cleaning and drying process to prepare the garment for use.
