ისტორია
Founded in 1901 by John Wesley Hanes, the company originated as a hosiery and knitting business in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. It played a significant role in the mid-20th century shift where undergarments, specifically the white crew-neck t-shirt, transitioned into acceptable standalone outerwear. This evolution influenced global casual fashion standards. The brand remains a historical fixture in the development of the American textile industry and the mass production of standardized apparel.
