^{THE T-SHIRT WORN ONLY BY EMPLOYEES.
AN ARCHIVAL PIECE THAT WAS NEVER MEANT TO LEAVE THE WORKSHOP.
THIS T-SHIRT STILL HOLDS THE ENERGY OF THE PEOPLE WHO KEPT CHROME HEARTS RUNNING DURING ITS GOLDEN AGE.
IT ISN’T BOUGHT—IT’S ARCHIVED. AT CHROME HEARTS, THERE IS AN INNER CIRCLE: THE STAFF. "STAFF" T-SHIRTS ARE INTERNAL PIECES—NEVER SOLD IN STORES, NEVER CATALOGED, AND NEVER INTENDED FOR THE PUBLIC. PRODUCED IN SMALL BATCHES TO OUTFIT THE TEAMS (WORKSHOP, STORES, EVENTS), THEY USUALLY DISAPPEAR ALONG WITH THE EMPLOYEES WHO WORE THEM.
THIS LONG-SLEEVE SHIRT, FEATURING PURPLE PRINTS ON BLACK, IS AN INCREDIBLY RARE RELIC OF THAT WORLD.
IT IS A RARE COLOR COMBINATION FOR CHROME HEARTS, AND EVEN RARER FOR AN INTERNAL PIECE.
THE PURPLE—AN ALMOST INDIGO HUE—CONTRASTS WITH THE DEEP BLACK OF THE COTTON, CREATING A SUBTLE YET STRIKING EFFECT THAT REVEALS ITSELF ONLY WHEN LIGHT HITS THE FABRIC.}
