Custom Industries is a globally inspired streetwear brand whose aesthetic reflects the quest for adventure and the discovery of the obscure. Custom is about individuality and community, living life on the road and off-the-beaten path. Respect for the familiar and the unusual; opening eyes and minds to peoples, places and cultures from around the world, and in our own backyards.

“All of our products are made in the U.S.A. of the finest cotton and poly/cotton blends. The shirts are all tagless for added comfort and many are embellished with additional contrast cover stitching. The screen prints have a soft hand feel, and hold up well after multiple washes. Each graphic comes with a unique hang tag that describes a bit about the inspiration for the design.”

Mat Taylor, Custom Industries

After months and months Alex Dakoulas has finally released some new shirts for sale. One goes back to the days when he hand-made the shirts himself by incorporating silkscreening, an iron-on, and pins.

The other two are type tees trying to bring a little more fun to the world with the sayings “Never Grow Up” and “Less Fighting, More Hugging”.

The text on the More Hugging tee was done by hand while the other incorporates line drawings into the type.
