Who wears dark heather
Dark heather is a favorite for vintage-style and lifestyle merch, gym and athletic wear, and hoodies and tees that should look broken-in from day one. It hides lint, pet hair and wear better than solid black.
Dark heather reads as relaxed, sporty and comfortable rather than formal.
Printing and embroidery on dark heather
White, light gray and bright inks work well. The heathered texture softens prints slightly, which suits vintage-style designs.
