GNCO (RESPECT THE IRON) - Long Sleeve

RESPECT THE IRON™ Heavy Long Sleeve

A work-ready classic with vintage weight and real-world grit.

Built to feel lived-in from day one, the Respect The Iron™ Heavy Long Sleeve delivers that old-school cotton weight operators trust — no flimsy fabric, no fast-fashion feel.

The 6.0 oz midweight cotton has a vintage thickness that settles naturally across the shoulders and wears better the longer you run it.
Up front, a faded GNCO chest mark.
On the back, the full Respect The Iron™ artwork — bold, gritty, and unmistakably built for hands-on people.

Cuffed sleeves stay tight through work and washes.
The ribbed collar holds its shape.
Tubular knit construction keeps the silhouette clean with no side seams and reduced fabric waste.

This is the long sleeve you wear to the shop, the meet-up, or the garage — layered under a jacket or worn on its own.
