a faded little sunburst from the 1940s, given a whole new life!
made from an original cotton feed sack featuring an incredible oversized AMCO sunburst graphic in the dreamiest washed-out powder blue. the original design features bold lettering radiating around a central triangular AMCO emblem, with the entire graphic softened by decades of fading into the most beautiful pale blue against naturally aged ivory cotton.
what makes this pair especially lovely is just how beautifully the original print has aged. The sunburst graphic is barely there in places, almost like a ghost of its former self! The oversized design runs down one leg, while the other is mostly unprinted, creating a wonderfully understated, asymmetrical look. Little traces of blue along the hems and the natural texture of the old cotton make these feel especially special.
finished with a comfortable elastic waistband and an easy, wide-leg silhouette. A soft, subtle, one-of-a-kind pair for someone who loves the quieter side of vintage textiles.
size: L-XL / 33"-40" waist / 36.5" length (note: these pants are very forgiving • designed to comfortably fit a wider range of bodies than the letter size suggests)
made with: original AMCO Sunburst feed sack / 100% cotton / ~1940s
sewn: 10/8 in California in over 5 hours
fyi:
+ best cared for by hand • machine wash cold on gentle cycle if needed +
+ made from vintage materials • slight imperfections add to its story +
+ sewn slow in california
