Undercover 99SS Relief Era Short Sleeve Shirt

UNDERCOVER 1999SS WORK SHIRT from the RERIEF collection.
Size: L

RERIEF (Relief) is a collection that expresses the shadows of clothing through a very labor-intensive process. The garments, featuring decorative parts like pockets and patches, are washed to create fading, and then the decorations are removed, leaving the marks of the decorations "etched" into the fabric.

I believe I wore this shirt once or twice when I bought it (in '99), and it has been stored for a long time, so the condition is very good.
As stated on the quality label, due to the nature of the processing of this collection, the color of the relief will fade with wear and washing.
This shirt still retains almost the original darkness of the relief.
I think it's rare to find an item in this condition from 27 years ago.

One thing to note: the inside of the collar has discolored to white along the fold.
I'm not sure if this was present from the beginning or if it's due to aging.
Looking at other RERIEF shirts for sale, I see this discoloration on everyone's items, so it may have been there from the start.
(I think the collar was folded during the washing process in manufacturing, so it's highly likely it was like this from the beginning, but I can't say for sure.)
It's on the inside of the collar and not visible when worn, but just in case.

Features pockets on both sides.

Please consider this valuable archive piece from the brand's early days.

Additional note:
Upon closer inspection, there are white, linear areas of fading near both shoulders on the back.
I'm not sure if these were present from the beginning or occurred later, so please be aware of this.
