Filth Mart customizzzzed vintage sweatshirts
Everybody loves a sweatshirt. And so do we! Especially World War II era through the 1960s. Sweatshirts from that time were constructed so nicely with amazing attention to detail. Long rib on the cuffs and waistband are trademark design elements that make these sweats so good looking. The fit is way more chic than any random sweatshirt. Trust us. Anyway, when digging through massive amounts of crap to find said era of sweatshirts, we find many that are too stained or small to sell as is...but we don't have the heart to leave them behind. Instead, we use them to make one of our favorite items. We dye over paint and stains, add zippers or buttons, repair any serious damage and voila...a one of a kind, rugged yet very stylish little number we like to call the Filth Mart custom sweat. I even wear one while making them!
