From day one, we wanted to inject an authentic eco-responsible dimension into the Hast wardrobe. By working with 100% natural or recycled materials and favoring Europe to make our clothes, we are committed to an approach that is as respectful and conscious as possible. Not ignoring the impact of the fashion industry on the environment, we strive to limit our footprint by locally producing sustainable pieces of excellent quality. In the same way, we cultivate a spirit of transparency regarding the traceability of our products, both to give you the means to buy with full knowledge of the facts and to avoid any form of greenwashing.
With the raw jersey t-shirt , we reaffirm this ten-year desire by displaying our ambition for the years to come. Beyond the symbol, integrating a resolutely honest piece into our capsule collection is a strong message addressed to our community. For our 10th anniversary, it seemed important and appropriate to materialize our attachment to the principles that we have defended since the beginning, at the forefront of which is respect for people and the environment .
At Hast, it is not just products that we sell, but a certain idea of clothing that we offer you: values to endorse to build a unique style . The keen sense of responsibility , the quest for fair production, the concern for the value of clothing , the cult of know-how, all are combined in this t-shirt that says a lot without really saying it.
Everything you need to know about its making?
You find him too sober? Too shy? Too discreet? Come a little closer and look more closely. What jumps out at you, first of all, is obviously this chest pocket stamped with the seal of honesty . A clear, clean, assumed statement. "Honest everyday" , or Hast's displayed motto which is both a principle and an ambition, an ethic and an aim, the means and the end. Embroidered not far from the heart, this sentence is less a signature than a declaration of intent. A "statement" as our English-speaking friends would say. A stated desire to proudly wear our common values, and to embody them.
And then there is this material. This thick raw organic cotton jersey (190 gr/m2) that has not undergone any dyeing treatment, hence this delicious ecru color. If it is beautiful in photos, our honest knit is even more so under the fingers. Palpable, the thickness of the cotton evokes quality as well as durability. A real mesh armor in a natural organic material that does not fail to highlight the message flocked on the chest.
The cut, for its part, is simple and effective: neither too long nor too short, combined with a well-proportioned collar and sleeves falling nicely to mid-bicep.
Authentic design, classic design, top quality responsible material , careful manufacturing in Portugal: this t-shirt definitely deserves its place in the exclusive selection that we are offering you to celebrate our tenth anniversary.
An essential item in the men's wardrobe
If there is one color that can boast of being on good terms with the entire color palette, it is ecru . For its part, the T-shirt is by far the most useful (and most used) piece in the male wardrobe. As you can imagine, the combination of the two could only work. Under a plaid shirt, a flannel overshirt, paired with a navy blazer or a dark green work jacket, worn as is over jeans or tucked into dress pants, you have absolutely no chance of going wrong.
Finally, we would have done it quicker to list the items with which the raw jersey t-shirt does not fit rather than the other way around. And yet, it is not certain that this list contains the slightest item. Therefore, you just have to trust yourself.
PS: Legend has it that it will look even better on you if you wear it with Billy Joel's "Honesty" in your ears. It's up to you!
How to care for raw jersey t-shirts?
The care of the raw jersey T-shirt is very convenient: place it in the machine on the reverse side and run a delicate program at 30°C with a spin of 600 rpm . Obviously, wash similar colors together to avoid any unpleasant surprises. As for drying, the best would be to lay it flat to prevent the jersey from losing its shape over time. In any case, the tumble dryer is strictly prohibited. Once dry, you can iron your T-shirt if you feel like it: then choose a medium iron between 120 and 150°C.
