In a nutshell, we can describe Oldskull® as follows: We focus on unique graphics and motifs that are immortalized on high-quality products through contemporary printing methods. We want you to have fun and enjoy your new favorite pieces for more than just a short time and, if possible, tell others about us. The large selection of unusual print designs in colorful and also somewhat plainer styles is always praised by fans of our brand. As the name Oldskull® already suggests, the skull can be found on some of our numerous t-shirt and hoodie designs. Of course, we produce under the fairest conditions in two family-run factories in Thailand and Turkey, and we ship from Germany in the heart of Europe. We are very proud of the fact that all processes, from the individual motif design to the finished product sample, are done in-house.
By the way, in Europe Oldskull® is exclusively available through our online Shop . You can even find our hoodies, sweatshirts and caps exclusively at oldskulleurope.com.

Was ist dieses Oldskull und wie kommt ihr auf diesen einzigartigen Style?

Oldskull® is an ingenious brand with a unique style, which has its roots in the vibrant metropolis of Bangkok (Thailand). The name comes from an old skull (Old-Skull) and not from Old School, even if some print motifs suggest this reference and the style is described quite well. Since 2009 our designer is inspired by a mix of far eastern tradition and modern lifestyle, tropical weather and crazy nights in one of the most visited cities in the world, to create again and again catchy motifs with high recognition value for our t-shirts, hoodies, sweatshirts and more. As a fan of Oldskull Europe , you will always come across the number 1982. There are a few myths surrounding it but it is actually the year of the designer's birth. Simple as that.

And how is Oldskull coming to Europe now?

This is where we at Oldskull Europe come in. In our early 30s, Marko and Tobi, the founders of Oldskull Europe , often traveled to Thailand. Of course, various trips to the beautiful islands and beaches in the south of Thailand could not be missed, but the vibrant metropolis on the Chao Phraya has always captivated us. Once you have experienced Bangkok, you really only have two options: You love it or you hate it. What do you think our relationship with this bustling city looks like now? Inevitably, we ended up checking out trends and insider tips locally and stumbled across printed t-shirts from Oldskull® at JJ Market. We were hooked and immediately stocked up on them. True to the motto "Collect them all", more and more T-shirts somehow ended up in our bags and closets on the following trips. In 2015 we decided to bring this great brand to Europe. After what felt like an eternity due to research and initial contacts with the producers of Oldskull® in Thailand, we founded our company and since then bring you these unique vintage t-shirts to Europe at regular intervals.

Multiple packed Oldskull T-shirts

It was and still is a huge adventure with many challenges. First of all, the contact and trust between Oldskull® in Thailand and Oldskull Europe had to be steadily intensified. As a next step it was inevitable to tackle the fabrics used and the cuts with regard to habits and standards in Europe. Especially these points took a lot of time, as some adjustments could not be realized overnight. Starting in 2020, we were unfortunately slowed down a bit due to the Covid 19 pandemic and other global crises. Our productions were unfortunately repeatedly subject to extreme delays, and the transport chains were also permanently disrupted. Nevertheless, we persevered to be able to offer you at least sporadic supplies against all odds. Together with our friends and partners from Oldskull Thailand, we continue to work on bringing our brand to a new level and to continue to bring you joy with our unique products.

Where and how is your stuff produced?

We work in Thailand with a family business that previously produced exclusively for the Asian market. In the tropics, it is not comprehensible at first glance why polyester components and the thinly woven cotton fabrics used now had to be completely changed for our requirements. Legal aspects and regulations in Europe could not be ignored either, of course, which meant additional time for us. We finally did it and are now very happy with our job. Now that everything was ready in terms of print T-shirts for Europe, it was time to expand the product range. In our latitudes we have four seasons and therefore we need long-sleeved outerwear. Therefore, we from Oldskull Europe produce since 2019 exclusively hoodies and sweatshirts in Turkey, so that we do not have to do without the Oldskull print style in autumn and winter. Here, too, we work with a family business, which of course complies with all applicable standards and guidelines for fair production.

Rather, we are completely involved and responsible for the selection of fabrics, patterns, prints and colors used.
