RESEARCH CLUB SHIRT - PASTEL GREEN

Crafted and embroidered in Paris, the Club Recherche Shirt reinterprets the American bowling shirt through an unexpected construction.

Drawn from a 1960s Eastwood Studio archive, its crossed double breasted closure introduces a rare tailoring reference into a leisure garment, creating a structured yet relaxed silhouette.

At the back, a chainstitch embroidery executed on a vintage machine depicts a Parisian Cogg ship sailing before an Eiffel Tower reimagined as a lighthouse.

This traditional chainstitch technique, selected for its depth and dimensional texture, faithfully echoes the craftsmanship of 1950s productions.

Conceived as a statement piece, the Club Recherche Shirt embodies Eastwood Studio’s vision: bridging artisanal heritage with contemporary design.

Context

In the late 1960s, as souvenir jacket production became increasingly complex and costly, the bowling shirt emerged as a new commemorative garment.

Inspired by American leisurewear, it was produced and personalised in Japan for GI’s stationed on military bases.

Embroidered with club names and team insignia, it became a symbol of camaraderie and collective memory.

The Club Recherche Shirt continues this historical transition, elevating an everyday garment into a piece shaped by heritage and narrative.The prices shown correspond to our Atelier Edition direct pricing.
