Car culture clothing is the graphic tees, hoodies and caps that the car scene wears to meets, shows and the garage. The brands with the most in stock with us are Late Brake Supply and EuroStance, along with our own The Drivers HQ detailing tees. This guide covers who makes what, how heavy and how big each piece is, and how to pick.

What counts as car culture clothing?

Clothing made by and for people into cars: prints of the cars, parts and scenes they love, worn at the meet, in the workshop or on a normal day. Most of it is printed on heavyweight cotton tees and fleece hoodies, and the best of it comes from small brands that grew out of the scene itself.

Which car clothing brands do we stock?

Five brands have pieces we hold plenty of right now.

  • Late Brake Supply: a UK car culture brand owned by LB Supply Co Ltd, with designs inspired by JDM, drift, Euro and US muscle icons. Our Late Brake Supply guide covers the range.
  • EuroStance: a Manchester magazine and lifestyle brand, established in 2022, known for heavyweight hoodies and A3 car art. See our EuroStance guide.
  • The Drivers HQ: our own range, with detailing-themed tees printed in the UK.
  • Broke Boys: a streetwear lifestyle brand that grew out of the modified car world.
  • FibreKing: the microfibre specialist also makes a track day hoodie and a knitted bobble hat.

We also carry pieces from Strictly Static, Hoonigan, Crossed Dagger Apparel, Gas Monkey Garage, Sparco, Driver Apparel, The Hyped Source, Hayburner, Quarter Mile, Tucked Automotive, Vagabond, Shelby, Status Error and Foose Design, in smaller numbers. Each brand page shows what is available today.

Which car hoodies should you look at?

Start with the weight of the fleece and the cut, then the print you want people to see.

Which car tees should you look at?

Tees are where the designs get bolder and the choice is widest.

For colder days, the FibreKing Knitted Bobble Hat has a soft acrylic knit outer, a polyester shearling lining and an embroidered FibreKing monogram.

Car culture clothing compared

Weights and fits are each maker's own, from the product listings.

Brand Example Fabric weight Fit Sizes
EuroStance Lifestyle Script Oversized Hoodie 480gsm Oversized Small to 5XL
Late Brake Supply Speed Shop tees 180gsm True to size S to 4XL
The Drivers HQ Its All In The Detail Tee 200gsm Round neck tee S to 3XL
Broke Boys Wave Tee - Standard S to 2XL
FibreKing Trackwear Hoodie 80% cotton, 20% polyester Slim S to 2XL

What does gsm mean on a tee or hoodie?

Grams per square metre: the weight of the fabric. A higher number means a thicker, more substantial garment, so a 240gsm tee feels heavier than a 180gsm one and a 480gsm hoodie is noticeably denser than a 400gsm one. Heavier pieces hold their shape and suit colder weather; lighter tees are cooler for summer shows.

How do you choose the right size?

Check the fit each brand gives, because an oversized hoodie and a slim one in the same size are very different garments.

  1. Find the fit on the listing: oversized, relaxed, standard, true to size or slim.
  2. Measure something you already wear: lay it flat and measure across the chest, then compare it with the brand's size chart where there is one.
  3. Order your usual size for standard fits: Late Brake, for example, says its clothing fits true to size.
  4. Think about the look on oversized pieces: the usual size gives the loose shape the brand intended.
  5. Check the size range: some designs stop at 2XL or 3XL, others run to 5XL.
