Oversized Heritage Runs Deep Tee - Black

The Family Recipe.

During my trip to New York, I met Leonardo Scarpone, the man behind Sanpanino, a little sandwich shop in the West Village. Leonardo grew up in Brooklyn, but his roots were firmly planted in Puglia. His mother was a wonderful cook. His father, a traditional Italian, believed in keeping things simple. Good ingredients. No unnecessary fuss.

He grew up watching them. Learning from them. And eventually, he decided to bring a little of that world into his own. In 2000, he opened Sanpanino, combining the Italian-American food traditions he grew up with and the paninoteche he'd discovered during his trips to Italy. His father even taught him how to make fresh mozzarella. A tradition that continues in the shop today.

I suppose that's how heritage works. You grow up surrounded by certain things. Years later, you find yourself carrying them forward, sometimes without even realising it. Leonardo didn't simply inherit his parents' love for Italian food. He made something of his own with it.

The Heritage Runs Deep tee is a reminder that wherever you come from, a little piece of where your family began goes with you. Made from 100% premium cotton in a substantial 260-gsm fabric. Soft, heavyweight feel with a durable structure and comfortable everyday wear. Built to last, designed to be worn with pride.
