The Daily Paper Fall/Winter 2013 collection features a classic baseball silhouette that gives the jerseys a timeless street look.
As part of their take on sportswear, the shirts come in two colors -- black and white -- and are embossed with a simple but stylish 'dp' logo on the chest crest. The shirts, priced at approximately $100, are made from mesh cotton and contain satin embroidery. The plain, baggy shirts, coupled with the straight button look, gives the collection an authentic feel that keeps the design simple, as evidenced by the lack of pinstripes. The sleeves of the shirts feature an stitched on Japanese flag on the sleeve, while a cross-spear tribal shield appears on the right sleeve.
The classic baseball jersey is a fine look to the wardrobe that is a lasting feature of American street wear.
