What the shirt does

  1. No hardware

    Zero zippers, buttons or fastenings. Nothing to catch, scratch or snag a partner in the close hold.

  2. Four-way stretch

    A slim, flattering cut that moves on every axis. The fabric follows the lead, never the other way around.

  3. Built for hour six

    Breathable in the heat. Anti-cling once you're soaked through, so nothing sticks to your back between songs.

The range · Phase one

Built from the close hold out.

Two cuts for women, two for men. Each refined against one question: would a dancer notice the difference at hour six?

Construction details

  1. Close up of the fabric's same-colour raised texture

    Raised texture

    Same colour as the shirt, visible only on a closer look.

  2. Close up of a flatlock seam lying flat along the shirt

    Flatlock seam

    Seams sit flat against the skin and under a partner's hand.

  3. Close up of the clean neckline, with no hardware at the collar

    Clean neckline

    No hardware at the neck, so nothing digs in over a long social.

On the floor

From the first song to hour six.

See the stretch in a counterbalance lean, and how the fabric sits up close.

The engineering

We made the shirt we kept wishing existed.

A zip pull scratches a partner's arm in the close hold. A cotton tee is a wet rag by song five. Gym kit is built for one solo hour, not six partnered ones.

So we built for the part of the night the other brands never test: the fifth and sixth hour of a humid social, a new partner every few minutes, close enough to feel every seam.

    Why your dance shirt smells, and how to stop it

    Fresh sweat barely smells. The reek by hour three is bacteria feeding on what your shirt traps.

    Dancewear vs gym clothes: why dancing needs different kit

    Gym kit is built for one solo hour. Dance asks for six, in the heat, in the close hold.

    How a dance top should fit

    Too tight and you can't breathe by hour three. Too loose and it rides up on every spin.
