Acid wash isn’t a print or a dye it’s a controlled treatment run on a finished heavyweight garment, so the character is baked into the fabric itself. Every piece lands one-of-one within a range you approve first.
The drum treats each garment slightly differently, so no two pieces are identical; the uniqueness is the product, not a defect.
The hoodie is fully sewn and then the seams, ribbing, and body all take the wash differently, which is where the vintage depth comes from.
Built on 400-500gsm fleece specifically so the finished garment keeps a premium, durable hand after the wash softens it.
Your approved sample sets the range; bulk QC checks every piece sits inside it. Pieces outside the range don’t ship.
Wash-compatible inks go on before treatment, so graphics fade with the garment for an authentic, worn-in read.
Chemically neutralized so the process fully stops, then softened for a lived-in hand that doesn’t feel stripped or stiff.
Acid wash is a process product: the garment is fully constructed first, then treated, which means the wash chemistry, drum time, and neutralizing are as much a part of the spec as the sewing. Slight piece-to-piece variance is inherent and is the appeal; what we control is the range of that variance.
Wash-after-construction is what gives acid wash its depth; the seams, ribbing, and body all take the treatment slightly differently, which is where the vintage character comes from.
The hoodie is fully constructed first, and if you’re printing, wash-compatible inks go on before treatment so the print ages with the garment.
Treated in-drum for the faded marbled effect. Drum time and stone load are set per your approved sample; more time, more contrast.
Rinsed and chemically neutralize so the process fully stops, then soften for a worn-in hand that doesn’t feel stripped.
Each piece carries a unique character by design. Final QC checks that the variance stays inside the approved range.
Dark and mid-tone bases give the strongest marbling. We approve your wash on a strike-off of your actual base color before sampling.
Standard wash base takes the marble evenly with a soft finished hand.
Premium, structured base, deeper contrast, and a heavier vintage drape.
Cold wash inside-out, gentle cycle, dry low. The finish is pre-washed and colorfast, so it won’t bleed. Further care labels are printed with your branding.

No, and that’s the point. Each garment takes the wash slightly differently, so every piece is one-of-one within an approved variance range. Your approved sample sets range.
Printing happens before the wash using wash-compatible inks, so the print fades in step with the garment for an authentic vintage read. Post-wash printing is possible for crisp graphics on the faded base; we’ll sample your preference.
The process is controlled and neutralized, and we build on heavyweight 400–500gsm bases specifically so the finished garment keeps a premium, durable hand. The wash softens; it doesn’t degrade.
We agree on the range of your approved sample bulk QC and then checks each piece sits within it. Pieces outside the range don’t ship.
Charcoal, faded navy, washed brown, mauve, and faded olive are our proven bases. Very light colors show minimal marbling; we’ll strike-off your color before you commit.
The wash adds ~3–5 days of processing plus its own approval step, and sampling runs 10–14 days because your sample goes through the full production wash never a simulation.
