Nothing new here.
Everything you see is secondhand, each piece is sorted and graded in our LA warehouse. Because the world doesn't need another new T-shirt. It needs new ways of thinking. Live in AWE©.
Our Process
Secondhand shirts being sorted by color. The next step for them will be a trip to a commercial laundry and then back for sizing. At AWE we never manufacture new garments, and we never will.
