Hand-Dyed Art.

Small-batch, custom tie-dyes made by a Deadhead stoner on a hill in Vermont. No two pieces are ever the same. Creating wearable art since 1985.

Behind the Bench

This isn't mass-market retail. Every shirt is commissioned, folded, tied, and dyed by hand right here on the mountain.

Whether you are looking for my signature Cosmic Vee, the intricate NeoDashiki, or just want to pick a color palette and let the dye do the talking, it all starts with a joint and Jerry.
