File Under: #Workwear, #SkateCulture, #Uniform, #Deadstock, #Intervention
Description
Standard industrial work shirt, produced as durable uniform stock and never issued.
The intervention draws from Jobs? Never!! (2018), a short film directed by Jim Greco. Shot on Super 16mm and 35mm, the film follows Greco moving through Los Angeles—skating, drifting, maintaining a life organized outside of formal employment.
Greco belongs to a generation of skateboarders who established skateboarding as a viable adult life rather than a temporary youth condition. By the time of the film’s release, he is in his 40s—still active, still working on his own terms, still outside conventional labor structures.
A name patch has been added at the chest—“Jim Greco”—sourced through a local uniform supplier. The format is unchanged from standard issue: first name, last name, stitched for identification within a job.
Here, the name is applied where employment is implied, but not present. The garment remains otherwise unchanged.
