Product Insights
The Weekend Wine Club Printed T-Shirt by Beams is a collectible piece featuring original full-wrap artwork by Tokyo illustrator Hongama, originally conceived as a consolation prize for his gallery show. Its core promise is lasting artistic expression on a refined regular-fit tee that runs true-to-size, with screen-printed graphics engineered to endure over 50 washes if cared for properly. The main tradeoff is that the 100% cotton fabric shrinks 5–7% after the first wash, necessitating cold-water washing and air-drying to preserve both fit and print longevity.

Deep Research
How the regular fit compares to other Beams fits
- Beams has built its 48-year identity on reinterpreting American casualwear through a Japanese lens, so the regular fit here isn't a shapeless cut but a refined, slightly trimmer iteration of classic American athletic tees—what you're buying is that Japanese edit of a vintage staple.
The artist behind the Weekend Wine Club graphic
- Hongama's illustration occupies both the chest and back of the shirt—a full-wrap treatment often reserved for artist capsule collections rather than single-panel graphics—turning the garment into a true canvas and reinforcing that this is a wearable art piece, not a standard novelty tee.
- The graphic on this tee was drawn by Japanese illustrator Hongama—the same artist whose Tokyo gallery show retailer lost & found described missing as gutting, signaling that the design originates from a recognized art-world figure rather than a stock graphics team, and giving the shirt collectible appeal for fans of contemporary Japanese illustration.
- For over 50 years, Beams has built its identity around blending art and fashion—a lineage that started with Etsuzo Shitara’s 1976 Tokyo boutique and continues through artist-illustrated tees like this one, making the Hongama collaboration a natural extension of the brand’s DNA rather than a marketing trend piece.

Q&A
4 answered- Is the regular fit true to size, or does it run small/large? For someone 6 feet tall and 180 lbs, should they order their usual t-shirt size?
- This tee is designed with a regular fit, so we recommend ordering your usual size. For someone 6'0" and 180 lbs, a size Large should work well based on that description.
- Will this 100% cotton t-shirt shrink significantly after the first wash, and if so, should I size up?
- Yes, 100% cotton tees can shrink. Industry sources indicate 100% cotton shirts typically shrink around 5–7% in the first wash [2]. To minimize shrinkage, wash in cold water and air dry. If you're between sizes or prefer a looser fit, sizing up may be a good idea.
- How does the chest and back print hold up to machine washing and drying? Is it screen-printed or a different method?
- While the printing method isn't specified, it's likely screen printed, which is standard for graphic tees. With proper care, screen prints can withstand over 50 washes with almost no visible wear [4]. To keep the print looking great, turn the shirt inside out, wash in cold water on a gentle cycle, and avoid bleach or fabric softeners.
- What are the recommended care instructions to maintain the print and fabric quality?
- To maintain both the print and fabric, wash the shirt inside out in cold water on a gentle cycle, and avoid bleach or harsh detergents [3][4]. Air drying is best; if using a dryer, select the lowest heat setting and remove promptly [5]. These steps will minimize shrinkage and protect the screen-printed design.
