We would start with the design you want to wear, then check the garment measurements. The Civic VHS Hoodie keeps the larger graphic on the back, the Dream Chaser Hoodie offers another hoodie option, and Hot Rod Devils brings the Speed Shop look to a tee. This guide compares the Late Brake Supply range by print, fabric, fit and use, with sizing and dispatch details to check before ordering.
What is Late Brake Supply?
Late Brake is a UK car culture clothing brand, owned and run by LB Supply Co Ltd. It makes T-shirts, hoodies, caps and accessories inspired by JDM, drift, Euro and US muscle icons, under the motto "Lifestyle beyond the garage", and groups its designs into ranges such as Street Icons, Drivers Collective and LB Speed Shop.
Which Late Brake hoodie should you choose?
We would choose the car or scene you like, then check print placement. A small chest logo and larger back graphic feels different from a front-and-sleeve design. The listed hoodie range spans S to 4XL; check the selected design's current sizes and availability.
A red, white and black VHS-inspired car graphic on the back, with a small matching chest print. Our pick here if you prefer the main design behind you.

Which Late Brake tees do we stock?
The LB Speed Shop tees cover hot rod, cafe racer and speed shop designs on 180gsm cotton crew-neck garments, with ringspun yarn and double-needle sleeves and hems. We would choose among these by the front-and-sleeve graphic you prefer, then check the individual size chart.

Caps and jackets from Late Brake
To finish the look, Late Brake makes a snapback and a lightweight windbreaker that carry the same branding.
LB OG Logo SpeedBar Snapback Cap
A structured black crown and flat charcoal-grey peak, raised white LATE BRAKE embroidery on a red panel, Japanese "Godspeed" lettering, an embroidered LB side logo and an adjustable red snapback fastening.
A 90gsm lightweight jacket in 100% recycled polyester rip-stop, water resistant, with a rubber headphone patch, an adjustable elastic drawcord at the hem and two side pockets, in S to 2XL.
Hoodie, tee or jacket: which should you buy?
Buy for when you will wear it. A hoodie suits cold mornings at a meet and evenings in the garage, a tee suits summer shows and everyday wear, and the windbreaker adds a light, water-resistant layer over either. For a gift, an adjustable snapback avoids choosing a tee or hoodie size, though it is still worth checking the recipient likes the style and fit.
- For the meet season: a Speed Shop tee on its own, or under the OSK JPN Windbreaker when the weather turns.
- For the colder months: a hoodie, with the print on the back if you want it seen when you walk away from the car.
- For a quieter look: the Civic VHS Hoodie, which keeps only a small Late Brake print on the front.

How do Late Brake clothes fit?
Late Brake describes its clothing as true to size, but we recommend checking the chart for the exact garment. Compare both chest width and length with a similar item you like wearing, and distinguish body measurements from flat garment measurements.
- Measure a tee you like: lay it flat and measure across the chest, just below the arms, then from the shoulder to the hem.
- Compare with the chart: use the chart attached to the specific tee or hoodie, keeping the same measurement method. A flat chest width is not the same as a chest circumference.
- Choose from the measurements: allow for how loose you want it and whether it will be worn over another layer. Do not size up or down automatically.
- Check the size list: the listed windbreaker range is S to 2XL and the youth tees run by age; check the selected product's available options.
How do you look after a printed tee or hoodie?
Follow the care label inside the garment first. As general good practice for printed clothing, wash it inside out at a low temperature with similar colours, skip the tumble dryer and never iron straight over the print.
