Wolf
A comprehensive resource of defunct t-shirt labels manufactured prior to the year 2000.
Brand #22: H. Wolf & Sons
Circulation: Fairly common
Era: 1880s-1990s
Information: For a company obviously proud of their rich history in textiles (established in 1887!) none of it has been documented. The only solid information is what appears on their tags – aside from being situated in Cincinnati not much else is known.
Wolf were one of the few companies that had a rayon blend in select lines of their blank tees (44% Poly 43% Cotton 13% Rayon) and due to the recent demand for rayon has made the label more sought after. According to their trademark history in the 90s the brand became known as Wolfwear and Wolfstyle both of which are now defunct.

Jimmy founded Defunkd in 2004 when he started selling vintage t-shirts online. 20 years of experience later and he hasn't looked back since. Actually, he looks back all the time given he's a sucker for nostalgia. For more, check the history of Defunkd and Jimmy's Expertise.
