Reworked thermal long sleeve with hand-cut flannel appliqué referencing early-’90s Seattle grunge scene and the first wave of mainstream tattoo culture.

File Under: Seattle Grunge
Description
Thermal waffle-knit long sleeve, reworked with hand-cut appliqué in sun-damaged deadstock flannel sourced from a Vancouver charity store. The mirrored tribal motif recalls the moment Gen-Xers ushered in an era of body modification and self-ornamentation—pierced, printed, and personalized. The base garment, a thrifted thermal, references the Pacific Northwest uniform: layered for damp winters, worn for both style and utility. Thermal, flannel, and tribal converge here in an ode to Seattle grunge—referencing Hate Comics, Soundgarden, and Pearl Jam.
