How It Works

The Drop System.

We don't do fast fashion. We don't hold thousands of units in a warehouse. Every piece we make is custom cut, sewn, and embroidered to order. Here is how the 12-week journey works.

Zero Waste

By only producing what is ordered, we eliminate deadstock. This allows us to reallocate what would be inventory costs directly into higher quality fabrics and more complex embroidery.

No Compromises

We don't buy cheap blanks and screenprint logos on them. Our garments are custom cut-and-sew heavyweight french terry. Perfection takes time, and we refuse to rush the craft.

Exclusive Runs

Once a drop closes, that exact piece is archived. We very rarely restock old colorways or designs. The people who are there for the drop are the ones who get to own the piece.

The 12-Week Journey

From the moment the site opens to the day it arrives at your door.

Phase 01

The Drop Opens

The collection goes live on the site. You have a limited window to secure your size and place your pre-order. We answer questions on IG and showcase the fit.

Duration: 1-2 Weeks
Phase 02

The Forge

The site locks. We tally the exact number of orders and purchase the precise amount of raw cotton and thread needed. Fabric is dyed, cut, and the complex appliqué embroidery process begins.

Duration: ~8 Weeks
Phase 03

Quality Control

The garments arrive at our inspection facility. We check the stitching, the sizing, and the hardware on every single piece. If it doesn't meet the standard, it doesn't ship.

Duration: 1-2 Weeks
Phase 04

Dispatch

Pieces are folded, tagged, bagged, and handed over to our shipping partners. Tracking numbers are generated and sent straight to your email.

Duration: 3-5 Days

Common Questions

Everything you need to know before securing your piece.

Why does it take 12 weeks?
Because we don't pull pre-made shirts off a shelf. When you order, your piece doesn't exist yet. We source the fabric, dye it to our custom hex codes, cut the patterns, and apply intricate embroidery that fast-fashion machines can't handle. Quality takes time.
What if I move during the 12-week wait?
No problem. You can update your shipping address at any point up until the day we begin Phase 04 (Dispatch). Just shoot our support team an email with your order number and your new address.
Can I change my size after I order?
You can change your size only while the drop is still open. Once the drop closes and we enter Phase 02, our fabric orders are locked in, and we cannot alter your size.
Do you ever restock old pieces?
Very rarely. Part of the appeal of the drop system is exclusivity. Occasionally, we may do an "Archive Drop" of extras or mis-ships, but the only way to guarantee you get a piece is to order it while the drop is live.

As of April 14, 2026

The shipment of your hoodies is currently on its way back to the sender overseas. It will arrive there by April 28th. Once it arrives there, small necessary changes will be made for the shipment immediately and then they will be shipped back. The shipping time back to the US will be roughly 25 days or so. We are currently looking at an expected date to ship out your orders of May 30th.


Thank you so much for your patience and support. It truly means a lot during this unexpected delay.
