The Lot 4601 by Warehouse & Co. is the quintessential basic t-shirt. Crafted in 100% cotton jersey, woven at low tension from yarns with pronounced irregularity, it features a classic, short, and boxy silhouette. The reinforced collar opening and overlock stitches ensure enhanced fit and increased durability of the finishes.

The high standards of Warehouse & Co. led them to seek out machines capable of producing these distinctly vintage-look t-shirts. They settled on a loom from the 1960s, originally used for making ribbed underwear with thick yarn. This machine allows them to maintain the natural irregularity of the cotton threads and combine a unique texture with undeniable durability. "Loopwheeler" machines weave cotton with very low thread tension, thus producing a unique, superior-quality fabric for an incredibly comfortable final product. Only about 400 of these machines remain in Wakayama, Japan, and only half are commonly used. These machines were the standard between the 1920s and 1960s, until these manufacturing methods, deemed too slow and costly, gave way to efficiency and reduced production costs.
