You will see it often still in Malaysia... worn casually by older chaps walking around town, slowly cycling their old bikes or reading newspaper in mamak stall and just chillin'...!
especially slow and lazy town like in Georgetown... Kota Bharu and many places in Johor, Malacca & Ipoh... still...
The manufacturer name for this cotton shirt is Chung Kai Knitting Company. I am not big on the historical part of it; yet if you want to read more... I provided you the link
Here is the customed ads and the company brand printed on their packaging and shirt labels and the brand has been long trusted among Malaysians for a very long time.
There is no big fashion in this type! However it is bought and worn by majority because of its high comfort level. that bring me back when I was just a kiddo too.... My grandfather after his hard work at the shop he will take his shirt off and leave his undergarment on while taking a nap by wearing the exact same brand.
And is a type of cotton material is fairly light, quite airy and breathable. Though is majorly customed to men's body... I took a personal effort modify it to my liking and that is because of I love the feeling of CK cotton on my skin. Simple as that.
It is commonly available on four types of shirts: sleeveless, round neck, with button and with zip and pocket on the front. Whichever comfortable to you.. you can get online cheaper in price major on lazada.com!
