This garment is constructed as an exhibit.
The snapdragon is presented not as decoration, but as an artifact — observed, recorded, and preserved through text, symbol, and placement. The back print draws from the language of gallery wall labels, scientific notation, and field documentation, turning the shirt into a wearable archive. Every line of type functions as a caption. Every mark becomes part of the record.
CAT.COV-01 marks the first colorway in the Covalence series, a study in how form, meaning, and palette bind together into a single cultural artifact. Like any cataloged piece, this edition is part of a larger system — one that grows over time, but never forgets where it began.
Wear it as a document.
Carry it as evidence.
This garment is included in our Standard Issue collection, the quiet architecture of Neighbors & Hoods. These refined essentials anchor a wardrobe with balanced proportions and modern simplicity, offering dependable clarity for everyday stewardship.
The CADRE cut is your archetypal tee, elevated. Proportions are calmly balanced—shoulders aligned, body neither slim nor loose, hem falling at that precise point where it works as easily over trousers as it does half-tucked. The line is straight, the profile clean, giving whatever you pair it with a clear, intentional frame.
The fabric is smooth and substantial, with that refined organic hand that feels cool at first touch, then softens with wear without ever losing its shape. The collar holds its edge without biting at the neck, the sleeves skim the arm rather than gripping it. This is the quiet standard: a modern, everyday tee treated like a tailored essential.
DETAILS:
• Medium-fit unisex silhouette with set-in sleeves and ribbed collar.
• 1×1 rib at collar, twin-needle hems.
• Smooth surface for printability, comfortable everyday wear.
COMPOSITION:
SHELL: 100% organic combed ring-spun cotton (24 singles) for smooth finish.
WEIGHT: approx. 5.3 oz / 180 g/m².
Each piece is created to order, crafted only when you choose it. This slower approach takes a little more time, but it keeps us thoughtful—producing intentionally rather than in excess. Your purchase supports a model that values quality, reduces waste, and honors the idea that what we wear should be made with purpose. Thank you for choosing pieces that are created with care, not stockpiled.
