The Alternative Oversize II
Description
The oversized tee, reconsidered. The Alternative Oversize II keeps the relaxed boxy silhouette but adds a mock neck and a drop shoulder cut that gives it a more structured, intentional streetwear shape than a standard oversized tee. 200GSM organic cotton lightweight enough to wear all day, substantial enough to hold the shape.
The fit is genuinely oversized, not just sized up: a super boxy body with drop shoulders that drapes rather than clings. Most customers size down for the best proportions check the size chart, and go one size down from your usual if you want the silhouette to look deliberate rather than accidental.
Fit: Super boxy oversized fit with mock neck and drop shoulders. Most customers size down check the size chart before ordering. Unisex, like everything we make.
