MTL・Unisex embroidered crewneck・Green

Three letters, one city, lots of love.

MTL is the short version of Montreal, but with everything we love packed inside. A declaration of love to this city that sometimes makes us curse, but that we wouldn't leave for anything in the world.

Conceived by PETITOM for LE CARTEL, this original typeface joins the world of MONTRÉAL SAFARI — Chapter 01, our slightly crooked tribute to Montreal.

To bring it to life, we chose chenille embroidery with a generous relief and a super soft texture. A little retro vibe, a fuzzy effect, and plenty of character.

50% organic cotton, 50% polyester. A comfortable crewneck, designed for chilly days, long nights, and everyone who carries Montreal in their heart.

Three letters. One texture. Simply Montreal.

A portion of sales goes directly to the artist. Wearing this crewneck means supporting local creation.
