About Me

We make silkscreened and embroidered hoodies in the City of Oakland. We are strongly influenced by that which is old, weathered, or discarded. We print and spray with only solvent-free, water based paints and inks, to reduce our environmental impact. These paints and inks are just as color fast as the solvent based ones. All of our apparel is American made and sweatshop free. We draw upon different sources for inspiration, pop art, military clothing etc. We use images of people who were originals or broke through some pre-existing barrier or stereotype. We believe the process should be visible and beautiful not seamless and hidden.
