This product is made especially for you as soon as you place an order, which is why it takes us a bit longer to deliver it to you. Making products on demand instead of in bulk helps reduce overproduction, so thank you for making thoughtful purchasing decisions!

Source

We collaborate with ethical production partners in South America and Europe that we personally assessed and vetted for the state of their facilities, the code of conduct they apply, the feedback from employees, and application of fair wages; amongst many other factors.

Based on our research and expertise in manufacturing, crafting garments in the same country where the fabric originates is a more sustainable approach, minimising waste. This holds true when the facilities uphold sustainable manufacturing standards.

For a deeper understanding or any queries, please feel free to reach out.

About wearing art

The artists we collaborate with are excited to share their art more widely through our collections. Most of them reached out to us directly to request a collaboration with us. We have put in place a strong collaborative process to ensure their art is respectfully placed on each garment. Wear it and share it proudly!

The Original Artwork: Snakes and Berries

"Snakes are the sacred rainbow serpents that made the rivers and water holes.
They travel upstream and downstream then rest in the water holes where it's cool and there's lots of food.
The snake berries are food for the snake when they are pinkish and reddish and are pretty but it's not good for people to eat" - Sarah Bin Hitam
