My name is Sebastian. I live in London England and I own around 30 vintage KH vintage T-shirts. I collect other items as well, for example, posters from KH exhibitions or his art released by the KH foundation. I also have some other cool stuff KH used to sell in his shop called “Pop Shop”. I started to collect vintage around 8 years ago, back in my small hometown, Żory in Poland (only around 60,000 people live there). We used to dig for cool pieces every day, sometimes even skipping school to get more time. We would be digging and ... Read more

Liquid Blue tees are attention grabbers. The artwork is so detailed, and there are so many prints (not to mention countless celebrities who wear them) these shirts have their own planet in the vintage t-shirt universe.
