We design and produce modern, streetwear-inspired workwear for local trade companies. No boring Carhartt. No 50-shirt minimums. Just gear that makes your crew look sharp and your company look real.
Most trade companies show up in the same worn-out tees and outdated logos. Your crew is out there every day, visible to every customer. That shirt is a billboard. Make it count.
Same $3 blank tees as everyone else in the phone book. No design, no identity, no impression. Your crew blends in with every other truck on the block.
Custom designs built around your company identity. Streetwear aesthetics meet job-site durability. Your crew becomes a walking billboard that customers actually notice and remember.
We collect a 50% deposit upfront, then use that to source blank apparel and pay a local screen-print shop for production. You never touch inventory. You never front the cash.
We identify local trade companies near you, design custom mockups showing exactly how their crew would look, and deliver a pitch deck they'll actually want to see.
50% deposit upfront funds the production order. The remaining 50% is collected on delivery. You collect before you spend — never the other way around.
We source wholesale blanks, coordinate local screen-printing, and deliver the finished gear to your customer's door. Then we ask for a referral.
This isn't a side project. It's a direct extension of a working streetwear brand already operating in the real world — with the supplier relationships, design skills, and community network to make it happen.
Real design sensibility from years running a streetwear brand. We don't just slap a logo on a shirt — we build a visual identity your customer's crew will actually want to wear.
Active wholesale buying relationships for blank apparel mean we source faster and cheaper than someone starting from scratch. Screen-printing already coordinated.
Two retail storefronts on West Broad Street in Richmond. A network of designers, resellers, and creatives. Trade company owners will relate to that hustle.
Customer pays 50% upfront. That deposit funds production. No inventory risk, no cash-flow crunch, no credit needed.
There are over 700,000 plumbing businesses and 660,000 electrical businesses in the US. Almost all of them are micro-companies with 1-10 trucks — and zero design help.
The traditional uniform suppliers (Grainger, Uline) sell boring catalog garbage with high minimums. Nobody is serving these businesses with design-forward workwear at a price that makes sense.
