A very versatile 320 GSM unisex hood this one. But it wouldn't make the edit just based on that now would it? No - the big deal here is the super hero double act that is, Carbon and Neutral. As the world heads towards overheated oblivion, we have to include garments that are made in manufacturing facilities powered by green renewable energy, using low-impact raw materials. The carbon footprint of this very wearable piece has been reduced by 90%, as certified by the Carbon Trust. If you really care maybe don't buy any hoods at all, but if you're hell bent on making stuff and still have a conscience, this one might help you sleep a little easier. And us too. Oh, and it has side pockets rather than a Kangaroo pouch, so handy if you need to do a big front print.

Make a cup of tea, that's usually a good start, and then once you're ecstatically, (or even moderately) happy with your quote, we'll most likely want to get into a little detail, so if a chat is ok, an email to info@october.co.uk with a phone number and a convenient time for you is handy - (can also be done by email only, if you're the dark and silent type).
We will run through your garment choices with you, making sure they will all work well for your chosen print or embroidery method; look at garment sizing, perhaps the tried and tested 1/2/2/1 split across S/M/L/XL; talk about choice of inks, water based, solvent based, discharge, digital etc, and ensure you're aware of all the pros and cons and make the right chemical decisions. Print or embroidery colours will be agreed, with pantone references if you have them. We will check overall artwork sizes, any font sizes, line details, tonal dot issues, and consider artwork positions – is 8cm down from the neck agreeable for you Madam?
When we're all happy with all that, we will assemble all your stock, make your artwork films and screens, run an embroidery disk for approval if required, and then give the option of coming into the factory for a print day, (where we can play with ink colours, ink textures, and artwork positions), or, if you're a Moisture Farmer living on the planet Tatooine and the commute is a struggle, we can print or embroider your garment onto a sample, pop it on one of our top in house models, and email you a nice pic of exactly what you can expect to receive. Back neck woven labels and high definition badges we would post out to you before running the bulk. Essentially, checks and balances all the way, to keep you nice and safe.
