Our limited edition tees are printed using traditional movable type techniques in a contemporary product of changing times, where traditional innovation find each other to create an unique fashion style.
To create our tees we search our print shop’s vast collection for the appropriate typefaces.
After that, individual letters are assembled to compose the print forme, then the forme is mounted on the printing press, and the letters are manually inked in a blaze of colors and scents.
The impression is made under great pressure with a cylindrical hand press. Each piece is then labelled to indicate it’s edition number and ready to ship.
