Our Velvet Underground range brings together t-shirts, hoodies, jumpers and accessories built around the artwork that collectors actually want, printed on garments made to be worn rather than filed away. Whether you came to the band through the records, through the artwork, or through everyone who followed them, there is something here for you.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFormed in New York in the mid-1960s, the Velvet Underground paired Lou Reed's songwriting with John Cale's viola and drone, Sterling Morrison's guitar and Maureen Tucker's standing drums. Their 1967 debut, The Velvet Underground \u0026amp; Nico, arrived with Andy Warhol's peel-off banana sleeve and a set of songs that commercial radio had no idea what to do with. White Light\/White Heat followed in 1968 and pushed harder still. The records sold modestly at the time and then went on to shape decades of guitar music that came after them, which is exactly why the designs still land with people who were not born when they were made.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEvery garment in the range is built for repeat wear. We use soft cotton that keeps its shape after washing, prints that are made to resist cracking and fading, and a size range that runs from small through to the larger end of the scale so the fit is right rather than approximate. Hoodies and jumpers are weighted for real winter use, not just for show.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBeyond the clothing, the accessories let you carry the artwork without building an outfit around it. Expect tote bags, patches, pin badges, socks and prints as stock allows, all carrying officially licensed designs.
