* LAUNCHING FRIDAY 24TH JULY 8AM *

Project 220, 1 of 100 × ALFOS is back! This is our latest outing with A Love From Outer Space, and taken two years to get here! A Japanese heritage baseball shirt in grey, sitting closer to the tonal palette ALFOS have always leaned on, carrying the iconic image on the breast pocket. On the back, a new script wordmark, ALFOS, rendered for the first time in this style.

The shirt comes from a Japanese heritage maker with over 50 years behind them, built from 8.5oz heavyweight jersey cotton with an open-end yarn construction that starts firm and only improves with wear and washing. A loose, relaxed cut, tonal matte buttons down the front, neck tape at the seam, and double stitching at the neck and hems to keep its shape over time. With Seans help we spent longer than expected finding a manufacturer that could deliver it properly, and it was worth it.

Alongside the standard print, there's a personalisation option. For an extra £5 you can add either ALL ALBION CHAPTER or GLASGOW CHAPTER printed underneath the back script, a nod to the club's Glasgow roots and to the wider community that's grown up around it well beyond the city. Sean explains it best:

'It's incredibly satisfying to finally see this collaboration come into the world. It's an idea we've been working on for a long time, but we were determined to get it right. Finding a Japanese heritage baseball shirt that met the quality we were looking for, and securing the right supplier, took longer than we'd hoped, but it was worth the wait. As 1 of 100 is a Glasgow business, we wanted to acknowledge the incredible contribution and support the disco citizens of Glasgow have made to the club by offering a Glasgow Chapter personalisation. At the same time, in the spirit of inclusivity, and with a nod to outlaw motorcycle clubs, we felt it was just as important to offer an All Albion Chapter option too. ALFOS has always had strong local roots, but it's also a community that extends far beyond any one city. We're really excited to finally share it.' - Sean Johnston

Front and back prints onto a 100% Cotton grey shirt with your unique number on the back, bottom left, hand printed in Glasgow.

£62, with the Glasgow Chapter or All Albion Chapter print available as a £5 upgrade. Just 100 in total across the colourway, blank, Glasgow Chapter and All Albion Chapter combined, individually numbered, never restocked. We're placing a single order with our manufacturer in Japan to bring these into production, so orders are open until either all 100 numbers sell out or the 7th of August, whichever comes first. If you know someone who'd want in on this one, send it their way, the sooner we hit 100, the sooner these go into production, thanks!

I wear my usual medium in this, same as I do in all our t-shirts, worn mostly unbuttoned. If you'd usually take a small, the medium will work fine as an oversized fit. If you're usually an XXL, go for the XL, worn open, it'll sit fine. We're only stocking medium, large and XL on this one.
