Charlie Hustle | Summer Lookbook '13 by Charlie Hustle

VINTAGE MADE FRESH The stories of the past are what has inspired us to reminisce, respond and recreate. Our goal is to bring something to the table that bring us back to our childhood, reminding of us our youthful innocence and our endless knowledge. We want to tell the stories of what once was and the epic memories that “once was” created. The stories of triumph and struggle, legacies of great men and we’re doing that on ringspun cotton, fit to please. Not only bringing back those good ‘ol days, but the garments that belonged to them. As we move forward as a company we hope to share more and more stories, all the while, creating one of our own. Right now, for us......the story has only begun, welcome to our introduction.

THE ‘HEART OF KC’ TEE A staple tee of the Charlie Hustle brand, representing our roots of our hometown of Kansas City. The ‘City of Fountains’ is known for its mid-western values, world-class art, and of course the best barbecue known to man. It may not be the ‘Big City, but you’ll find plenty to do here. It’s a special place with special people and we love it just the way it is, right here in the Heart of America.

Made with 50% Polyester, 25% Combed Cotton and 25% Rayon. Polyester retains shape and elasticity; Cotton lends both comfort and durability; addition of Rayon makes for a unique texture and drapes against the body for a slimming look

DANNY AND THE MIRACLES They came to be known as “Danny and the Miracles,” a forgotten team from the University of Kansas that captured magic at the right time, winning the 1988 national championship.

If you have never been to the Fieldhouse, you haven’t fully lived.

CHICKS BASEBALL The Chicks, originally short for Chickishaws were a minor league baseball team based in Memphis, Tennessee. Affiliates of several Major League squads through the years, the Chicks built up some wellknown players such as Tim McCarver, Terry Francona, David Cone, and quite possibly the greatest athlete of all time, Bo Jackson.

RUN TMC One of the freshest trios to ever hit the hardwood in the late 80s to early 90s was Tim Hardaway, Mitch Richmond and Chris Mullin. Hence the name ’RUN TMC.’ The backcourt threesome of the ‘Golden State’ still lives today through this tee. Led by Coach Don Nelson, this Warriors squad was a catalyst for NBA interest in the Bay Area. Represent what was good about professional basketball and pop-culture in the early 90s.

I HATE LA There is no better rivalry in professional basketball than that of Lakers vs. Celtics, Magic vs. Bird or East vs. West. This throwback thread depicts the classic battle through the eyes of a Celtics fan and the hatred and respect for its rival. Throughout the 80s, a similiar tee could be seen worn by Celtic fans all over the Garden during the epic playoff matchups between their cross-country nemesis.

LOB ANGELES There’s a new type of ‘Show Time’ sweeping the Los Angeles area and it doesn’t come in the form of purple and gold. They call it Lob City, where jumping out of the gym is normal and the postmasters are busy. This is our tribute to the new school.

STARTING LINEUP Pat McNally, a former professional football player for the Cincinnati Bengals was waundering through a toy store one day when the idea to make sport figurines was conceived. There were many action figurines like G.I. Joe and of course Batman & Robin, but nothing out there based off of real-life sports heroes. McNally teamed up with his college buddy who was running the day-to-day operations at Kenner to create the toy line, debuting a 132 player set upon release in 1988. They called them, Starting Lineup.

STUYVESANT PHYS ED Stuyvesant High School , commonly referred to as ‘Stuy’ , is a New York City public high school strong in mathematics and science. The t-shirt is recognized in the 1986 video ‘Fight For Your Right’ from the Beastie Boys’, Licensed To Ill album. Adam ‘Ad-Rock’ Horowitz is seen rockin’ the Stuyvesant Phys Ed tee which has become a pop-culture phenomenon. This tee was recently brought back to the forefront of popular culture in the Beastie Boys latest video where they revisit the famous song. We’ve reproduced it with that vintage look that you all have grown to love.

PHI SLAMA JAMA Coined by former Houston Post sportswriter Thomas Bonk in a January 3, 1983 article, the nickname was quickly adopted by the University of Houston players and even appeared on team warmup suits by the middle of the 1982-83 season. Phi Slama Jama aka “Texas’ Tallest Fraternity” was especially known for its slam dunking and explosive, fast-break style of play led by future Hall of Famers Hakeem Olajuwon and Clyde Drexler. This tee takes you back to the glory days of one the most dynamic, high-Đflying college basketball teams ever assembled.

BRING BACK THE KINGS Originally named Royals after stints in Rochester and Cincinnati, the team changed its name to the Kings upon moving to Kansas City to avoid confusion with their MLB club also known as the Royals. Bringing back the glory days of Kemper Arena, this tee reminisces what it was like to have an NBA team in Kansas City. Due to the lack of fan support in the mid 80s, the NBA board of trustees unanimously allowed the team to relocate to Sacramento. It may never happen again, but here’s to hoping.

Made of 100% fine ring-spun combed cotton, this lightweight fine jersey is exceptionally smooth and tight-knit, making it a perfect fit on your torso.

SOUTHSIDE HITMEN In 1976, the Chicago White Sox were one of the worst teams ever fielded. However a big-time turn around happened when Bill Veeck regained ownership a year later. The ’77 squad hit a since-broken team record of 192 home runs and were dubbed the ‘South Side Hitmen’ by the fans and media. The name is still recogonized today in separation of their hatred for the crosstown rival Cubs. Represent the Sox of the South Side in this super fresh tee.
