Back by popular demand, the Men's Raphael Crew is a reinvention of the original '87-'88 Hi-Lo Gramicci tee. Whether you're a long term Gramicci zealot or a new convert, the staple Raphael Crew will make you a believer in Gramicci's high quality styling and absolute comfort. This 100 percent Lujian tee is so soft and comfortable you will like it's a second skin and the Lujian will shrink less than 4 percent, for a perfect fit that will stay perfect over years of washing.
With Gramicci's loosely knitted, Slack Gauge Jersey alternative gauge construction, the beefy crew has a freestyle shoulder/sleeve panel and the original Hi-lo hem. Alluvium wash adds extra softness and the "perfectly imperfect" broken-in look that Gramicci is known for. But don't let perfect softness and worn-in styling fool you, Gramicci has built this crew to be beefy and rugged, ready to take all the hard play you have in for it.

About Gramicci
It's the early 1980s: MTV and stone-washed jeans; movies like Bladerunner, Diner, and Ghandi rule. Mike Graham, inspired by a love of surfing and climbing, launched Gramicci from his garage in Southern California. He designed the now-famous gusseted crotch and cinch/release belted G-pant and short that have become legend in the outdoor community. With grassroots efforts and word of mouth, the now cult-like following for Gramicci clothing began to grow. By the late 1990s, Gramicci was coveted for its unique fabrications, worn and weathered finishes, freedom of movement comfort, quality, and multiple functionality.
Years later, Gramicci is still dedicated to creating garment dyed, worn-and-weathered clothing built for the sport of living. Forever paying homage to the original designs launched over two decades ago, the company's design team is always busy dreaming about the next generation of Gramicci. With a strong foundation, Gramicci is committed to developing new, natural technology and innovative designs each season.
