August Vest

This chocolate-hued tank is rendered in a midweight knit that holds its shape against the torso, finished with a high crew neck and wide, ribbed-trim armholes. A full-length button placket runs down the center front, allowing for a customizable slit that breaks up the severity of the dark, solid color. It functions as a modern update to the classic shell, trading standard jersey for a structured, tactile knit that feels grounded and intentional.

Safety Rating: Lowest

Analysis: The blend of 70% polyester and 30% viscose relies heavily on petroleum-based synthetics, which limit breathability and contribute to microplastic shedding. The reliance on standard viscose also introduces concerns regarding chemical-heavy processing methods that are often less environmentally and dermatologically benign than closed-loop alternatives.
