I have been working on creating new designs and offerings for Monsivais & Co. I believe it is time to grow and offer more of what I have been drawing up in notebooks. I had a hard time looking for certain denims and novelty prints so I decided to make some of my own.
I discharge printed my own design on a base of Cone mills 12 oz. red selvedge denim to test out on certain samples like the bag previously shown and this cap below. For those that ask, Discharge printing is a process similar to screen printing but instead of adding paint the process uses a special chemical that "bleaches" the cloth back to its natural undyed color. This process was used by decorated work wear cloth makers since the late 1890's up to the 1930s.
