We made the beautiful soft brown of this shirt from locally-foraged black walnuts, the fruit of a tree native to the Eastern United States. Added to a meticulously crafted t-shirt made from North Carolina cotton, it's piece of clothing intimately connected to land we live on.
We collected hundreds of pounds of walnuts that fell from large, old trees near our production facility in central North Carolina. We soaked the walnuts in water for several weeks to create a dye—a slow process that reduces our carbon footprint by requiring zero energy input. When then dyed t-shirts with it four miles down the road at ' dyehouse.
