Our Garments
The design is half of what you are buying. This is the other half.
01 · The choice
We chose one family of blanks and stayed with it
There are cheaper shirts. We have held them, washed them, and put them down again. What we print on instead is a single family of American-made, garment-dyed cotton from Comfort Colors — one tee, one crewneck sweatshirt, one hooded sweatshirt — chosen because they share a cloth, a dye process and a feel, so that whichever one you pick up it behaves the same way in your hands and in your wardrobe. A store that changes its blank every season is asking you to gamble each time. We would rather you learn one garment and trust it.
02 · Garment-dyed
Dyed after it is sewn, which changes everything
Most clothes are made from cloth that was dyed on the roll and then cut up. Ours are sewn first, as plain undyed garments, and dyed afterwards — whole, in the dye bath, seams and all. It costs more and it takes longer, and it is the reason these feel the way they do. The color settles into the cotton rather than sitting on the surface of it. The garment comes out already relaxed, with the softness a favourite shirt usually takes two summers to earn. And because every piece takes the dye slightly differently, no two are exactly alike. Yours will not be quite the same as the one in the photograph, and that is not a defect in the process — it is the process.
The color lives in the cotton, not on top of it.

03 · The tee
Comfort Colors 1717, and why we start here
The 1717 is the shirt the whole store was built on. It is 6.1 oz — 207 g/m² — of 100% ring-spun cotton, which is a substantial, dense cloth rather than the thin jersey that has become normal. The collar is ribbed and topstitched so it does not go slack. Twill tape runs shoulder to shoulder, which is the small piece of construction that keeps a shirt square after fifty washes. The cut is relaxed: it hangs rather than clings, and it is meant to. This is the blank a whole tier of American labels is quietly built on, and we use it for the same reason they do.
04 · The sweatshirt and the hoodie
The same idea, in heavier and lighter cloth
When the coast gets cool and when your own winter arrives, the same idea carries over. The 1566 crewneck sweatshirt is the heavy one — 9.5 oz, 322 g/m² of three-end fleece, 80/20 ring-spun cotton and polyester with a 100% cotton face, so the outside stays dry and matte while the inside stays soft. Ribbed collar, cuffs and waistband that hold their shape, rolled-forward shoulders and proper side seams. The 1467 hooded sweatshirt is the light one — 6.4 oz, 217 g/m² of 100% ring-spun cotton, closer in weight to our tee than to our sweatshirt, with a jersey-lined hood and a flat natural drawcord. It is the one for a mild winter and a cool evening in a warm country, which is most of the year here.

05 · Color
Colors with names, because they were mixed and not picked
Our colors are not hex values chosen on a screen. They are dye-bath colors with names, and we use the names: Ivory, Butter, Blossom, Chalky Mint, Island Reef, Orchid, Blue Spruce, Pepper, Espresso, Moss, Graphite, True Navy. Most of them are pigment-dyed, which is what gives them their depth and their faintly uneven, sun-washed surface — the look of a shirt that has already had a good summer. A few are reactive-dyed for a truer, more even shade where the design needs one. Every design in the store is made in a light version and a dark version, and the color is chosen for the design rather than the design squeezed onto whatever color was in stock.

06 · How it wears in
It will change. That is what you are paying for
A pigment-dyed garment is not finished when it reaches you. Over the first few washes it will lighten a little and then settle, and where it settles is its own — slightly different from every other one of the same color in the world. We would rather tell you that now than have you discover it and think something went wrong. Wash it cold and inside out, tumble dry low, skip the bleach, and skip the fabric softener in particular: softener coats the cotton and works directly against the hand you paid for. Do that and the shirt will be better in three years than it is on the day it arrives, which is not something that can be said of most clothes.
It fades the way a good summer fades. Slowly, and into something you like more.

07 · Printed for you
Nothing is made until you order it
We do not hold a warehouse of shirts hoping someone wants them. Every garment is printed after you order it, in the color and size you chose, and shipped from the printer nearest you. It takes two to five days before it leaves, and it means nothing is overproduced, discounted and destroyed at the end of a season. Shipping is free, worldwide, with no minimum. If what arrives is damaged or misprinted, we reprint it free within thirty days — no return, no argument, no sending anything back.
