What happens
after you buy.

You should know what this shop can stand behind, and what it cannot. This page covers what goes into a product, what happens after you click buy, and the limits we will not talk around.

01

No leftover stock

Each piece is made after you order it.

We do not keep a warehouse of finished hoodies, tees or prints hoping they sell. A lot of regular retail works the other way: make a large run, store it, and the leftovers often become waste. Making the piece after you want it is the main environmental benefit of this shop.

02

Materials

We make the designs. Partners in the United States make the finished piece after you order it.

Within those lines we choose the more responsible eco options when they exist for a style. The mill list below is the range we draw from, not a promise that every hoodie or shirt comes from one mill.

Apparel

Tees · Sweatshirts · Hoodies
Blank source
Unprinted garments from Stanley/Stella, Gildan, Bella+Canvas, AS Colour and SOL'S.
Tees
100% cotton, organic cotton in some lines.
Hoodies
At least 80% cotton on the pieces we run most often, organic cotton in most cases, often blended with recycled fiber so the knit holds its shape.
Certifications
GOTS, OCS, GRS, OEKO-TEX Standard 100 and PETA-Approved Vegan. Listed only on the garments that actually carry them, never assumed.

Wall art

Canvas · Framed prints
Canvas
Acid-free, pH-neutral, on a poly-cotton base.
Frame
Ayous wood, sourced from sustainably managed forests.
Print
Museum-quality matte paper with a vibrant, water-based inkjet print that nature lovers will be proud to hang.
Per piece
The exact materials for every print are listed on that print's own page.
03

Who makes the physical piece

We make the artwork. Our partners in the United States make everything else.

They print it, pack it and ship it to you. We order samples and review them, but we do not run the production floor and we do not inspect every item before it leaves their site. That is the honest shape of this arrangement.

04

Trees

36Trees funded so far, one for every single sale, counted at Tree-Nation
One order = one tree

Every sale funds one tree through Tree-Nation. That step is meant to cover part of the shipping impact. It does not make an order carbon neutral, and it does not cancel the cost of making the piece.

Thirty-six is a small number, and we would rather show it at its actual size. It is a small gesture, our way of giving something back to the planet.

05

Shipping & packing

Two to three days to make it, seven to ten to get it to you.

Every order moves through the same window. Nothing here is rounded up in our favor.

Order timeline

Processing · Transit
Processing
About 2-3 business days. Your order is made after you order it, and this is the time it takes to print, produce and prepare it.
Transit
Usually 7-10 business days inside the US, counted after processing ends.
Packing
We ask our partners to use less wasteful packing on every order.
