{Sold Out} Twin Ring 1930s-style Selvedge Bandana (Navy)

Somewhere between the switch yard and the next water stop, he’d tug it loose from his neck, black with soot and sun. Fold it once, tuck it back into his pocket, and jump down from the caboose like he meant it.

The pattern? Lifted from a 1930s Elephant Brand original. Favored by brakemen, firemen, and anyone who knew the rhythm of steel wheels and the heat of a Baldwin engine.

Discharge printing doesn’t cover fabric, it transforms it. The water-based ink removes the dye and leaves in its place the color of the design, so the print becomes part of the cloth itself. Just like the old ones, it has that soft, lived-in feel you usually have to earn with years of wear. It won’t bleed, run, or fade, and it never sits heavy on the surface. Instead, it stays light, breathable, and ready for the miles ahead.

Printed, washed, and cut in Tennessee, where they still remember how to make a bandana.

Wear it around your neck. Wrap it around your face. Knot it to a bindle. Or hang it on the wall next to the map of where you’re headed next.
