GB0221/BK04 : Check SH (“Me Too Rat”)/Check Shirt (“Me Too Rat”)

Banksy, a masked artist who causes news and pros and cons around the world every time he releases his work. Check SH (“Me Too Rat”) released by glamb in collaboration with BRANDALISED, which manages and photographs his work.

One of the icons of grunge fashion, "Me Too Rat", which is said to contain Banksy's answer to the Me Too movement, can be seen from the three fronts of the ombre check shirt. Glamb made a checkered shirt with a bold crash to incorporate that work into their clothes. The letters "#MeToo" printed all over the body mimic the spread of the movement that has spread worldwide. The fabric printed with Banksy's painting is applied from the back side, and the world view of the painting is applied to the shirt along with a tribute to the character of Banksy, an artist who is a mysterious artist. The body of the regular silhouette uses thin cotton for the textile. Regardless of the season, you can enjoy the appearance of glamb's grunge and Banksy's view of the world.
