Unknown Union La Vida Knit Crop — Onyx

The Onyx colourway of Unknown Union's La Vida Knit Crop — “LA VIDA” across the chest, “LA MUERTE” on the back, reversed to read “ETREUM AL”.

Highlights

• ✓Lettering front and back. Life faces forward with you; death sits behind, written backwards because it calls from the side you cannot see.
• ✓Built on Carlos Luna's reading. Two ideas at once — that life and death are tied together, and that one moves forward in time while the other waits.
• ✓Cropped knit in Onyx. Short through the body in a dark, even colour, so the white lettering does all the work.
• ✓Numeric sizing, 1 through 5. Pick your size from the run on the product page.

There is a quiet joke in a garment whose back reads backwards — the person behind you gets the other half of the sentence. Worn with a high waist it needs nothing else.

The longer cut, the La Vida Knit Top, carries the same words. More knitwear in Women Sweater and Women's Tops.
