Where did the Black Singlet originate? A working man's attire now also coveted by women as a fashion item fashioned here from materials in the kitchen. From the Crib - as in born and schooled in the culture of the people and land, from baby to present - from the bab's mouth - true.

Also: A crib in the South Island as in a bach in the North. Bach - from Bachelor pad.
