The Saaibestrijding project
Some first steps toward the re-introduction of colourful and creative men's clothing, after two centuries dominated by black, grey, boring mass clothing. That is what Saaibestrijding is about. Often in cooperation with creative designers, makers, photographers and other enthusiastic people I try to trace new paths in male clothing. I am not a fashion designer. Not at all. My mother considered it necessary for her son that he learned how to use a sewing machine, but it was the central theme of my artwork that made me curious about, for example, the question why millions of western men are wearing day after day a tie around their neck. An extremely weird habit if you think further about it.
The Saaibestrijding project wants to inspire, to encourage everybody to leave the rude dictatorship of the fashion industry and its commercial power behind. Everybody is creative. You are not? No problem: There's no copyright on Saaibestrijding. Feel free to use my ideas and designs to copy them, to be inspired by them, to distribute them on the internet wherever you want.
Me and my wife are curious about your comments!

this is excellent.
the whole concept is excellent.
I very much like the shape of the shirt, on its own or with the trousers. But as well as looks, there's another reason that I would like one. We are having hot weather. After three dreadful summers, this is wonderful. But all the tops I can find - shirts and T-shirts - get sweaty at the armpits, because the fabric is so close to the body. I want something that is baggy at the armpits in the same way that sarouels are at the thighs. Your shirt here, or the wide-sleeve one in zeven-en-dertig, would do very well.
