Colonial Goods is proud to present a three-way collaboration with Goods of Desire (G.O.D.) and the Lee Kung Man Knitting Factory (L.K.M.). The essence of this project is to re-introduce a classic T-shirt with much heritage, while showcasing the craftsmanship and traditional methods of production behind a quality product still made in Hong Kong.
The T-shirts are made from vintage tubular-knitting machines dating back to the 1950s at the L.K.M. factory in Hong Kong. L.K.M. - one of Asia’s oldest operating mills - is among the few remaining factories worldwide in possession of such rare machinery. Due to the unique features of such antique knitting hardware and the time-consuming knitting process, the 100% Swiss cotton garments are unmatched in fineness of fabric as well as comfort. From Bruce Lee to the average tea-house goer in the 1960s, this T-shirt was undeniably an iconic staple of the past.
The tshirts will be available in two iconic styles: The “Roundneck” and the “Henley”.Colonial Goods,「住好啲」和「利工民」現協力出產一系列棉衫產品。
這款高質素港產棉衫，其精粹在於復興古典韻味，同時突顯背後賴以生產的精湛工藝及傳統生產模式。
有關棉衫是由利工民織造廠採用自1950年代傳承沿用至今的筒織機製造。該廠是亞洲其中一間歷史悠久，並在世界僅存少數擁有該款罕貴織機的工場之一。
由於該型舊式織機獨具特性,加上工序精繁，編織而成的純正瑞士紗服飾，無論在質料精緻度及舒適度各方面，均非其他同類產品可比。因此，在1960年代，無論李小龍以至茶館普羅常客均視這些線衫為當時不爭的主要標誌性產品之一。
這件棉衫分別有圓領和開胸配紐兩個款式。
we’ve been working on this 3-way collaboration between colonial goods, lee kung man, and ourselves (duh!) for the past few months.
come out to our central store location tomorrow night to support local fashion redux. celebrating true hong kong style.
in light of the recent news regarding these fake apple stores that have been exposed and subsequently closed down in china, we would like to share with you some photos that one of our very perceptive employees took of a FAKE G.O.D. store (with almost an exact replica of our logo and everything) last summer during a trip out to dongguan, in guangdong province, china.
any thoughts? reactions?
