Chinatown Market introduces the mini t-shirt launch that is described by the brand to be "like a regular t-shirt but very small." The playful design trolls its fans as it measures out to be only seven by five inches is size. It is constructed like a regular tee however, made up of 100% cotton materials for a soft finish.
Branding details can be found across the chest reading "CHINATOWN" in a bold arc font finish. The mini t-shirt was showcased originally on Instagram as the label unveiled a DM conversation with @substep4dads, discussing the possibilities of gifts in that size. The fashion brand playfully makes the statement that the tee will "not fit you but might fit a stuffed animal."
