These t-shirts look very unassuming, except their affiliation with Jun Takahashi‘s UNDERCOVER. There are some history on these graphics. They date back to the some of the earliest collections of UNDERCOVER, when the label was still a small t-shirt shop. At the time, UNDERCOVER was deeply rooted in punk and anarchist themes, hence the raw, blunt, in-your-face, and sometimes vile graphics. (After all, Jun Takahashi was briefly the lead singer of a punk band)
With permission, Japanese street wear brand VANDALIZE was able to produce replica of these t-shirts, using the same templates as before. Each t-shirt was hand-printed also, as Jun Takahashi did years ago. Limited availability at VANDALIZE in Japan, selected stores, and Cueve of ZOZOTOWN.
