OUR COLOURS<br />
& DYEING TECHNIQUES<br />
Our garments are available in one of the widest ranges of<br />
colours on the market, offering you a truly amazing choice<br />
– from whites, solid colours and heathers, to our unique<br />
all-over prints and creative garment dyeing techniques like<br />
vintage and aged, tie & dye and dip dye.<br />
The vast majority of our solid colours are fabric dyed, giving<br />
excellent shade consistency and printability. Heathers are<br />
knitted with yarn made from fibres of two or more different<br />
colours, and we are one of the few brands offering heathers<br />
in 100% organic cotton. Our vintage items are garment<br />
dyed, followed by a garment wash to create a faded effect.<br />
Other special dyeing techniques like tie & dye or dip dye<br />
are all hand dyed for a unique look.<br />
Care labels on every garment provide clear instructions<br />
on how to keep garments looking great, wear after wear.<br />
