Getting There

Alright! Today's a big one...we've closed another chapter. Today we wrap up production with our silk-screen shop on our first order. We're currently sitting on over 200 onesies & T's, each as sharp and vivid as the next. I've really got to say "hat's off" to OneOff Apparel in Worcester, those guys work magic.

(I was about to post some shots via my web cam, then thought better of it...you'll just have to wait until next week to see them being modeled online ;)

So right now we've got stacks and stacks of six designs:
Pop Tot
Safety First
I Get Lifted
Kinder Keffiyeh
Lil' Grill
Tux

We're very proud to be able to present single samples of another 6, for a total of 12 from our 18 original designs! It really means a lot to have the product in hand rather than just on a screen or on the page. I just couldn't be happier with how our first line is turning out.

On Friday we'll have our first large order tagged and bagged and shipped off, and are planning on shooting the merch for karmaloop.com on Monday. Then, well, I guess we'll be up and running!

But we're not resting. Our next steps are our look book shoot (this Sunday) and approaching many other premier street & baby vendors with our samples.

Oh, it also looks like we'll be doing some PR pretty soon. Boldfacers, a beautifully done Web zine focusing on local movers and shakers (co-produced by Adam Larson, designer extraordinaire), just contacted us about covering Pre-K! Our first write-up!! :)

So that's the news for this week, kids. Thanks for checking in, we'll keep you posted.
