Bakk 2 Basix

Had to take it back to the original meaning of Humble Beginnings with this one.. all this fashionista non-sense just makes it that much sweeter to get in a good days hard-work. Today, I show you a day in the life of a screen printer.. brought to you courtesy of Umbrella Shirts in the great city of Oakland.

ever wondered what 1500 brand new black t-shirts look like? 
screens can break down after being printed on hundreds of times... the Greater Than AIDS screen here proved to be resilient. Umbrella Shirts prints TONS of these tees and helps get their message across!



Fresh Tees in the front, Printed Tees in the back. Taylor here with some behind-the-scenes fresh printed STEEZE!

Tedious grey-scale efforts to test any color theorists' eye!

Reuben here, godfather of Mwamvuli

R2D2 at his most productive.. This is an Automatic Press (for the folks who never saw Star Warz.)
Anyway there's a quicky tour for you folks.. I owe a lot to Umbrella Shirts.. What did they give me that was most valuable? Knowledge. No doubt.
