LHOME

Lhome is a new brand from UK founded by Kiearan Mithani.

Kieran:

"I started Lhome 2 years ago while at university, partly to take my mind off an engineering degree but mostly I was bored of seeing tshirts with massive brand name logos plastered all over the front! So I went for it and printed 60 gold foil tshirts  (I know probably not the best choice to test the water!).

They  sat around for a while as I desperately tried to find a place  in the world for Lhome. A few sold but I decided to keep going and printed a few more designs. After that and a LOT of emails  later I picked up interest and stockists and then suddenly the sales started building up and before I knew it, that sad box of
gold foil prints was empty, closely followed by the other designs.

Suddenly I had about 10 designs and my first ‘collection’ had crept up on me. I finished the degree and had an amazing time building it up to that point, but managing 10 or 12 designs wasn’t for me. I wanted to strip it down and focus on making a different, high quality, limited product to make each new Lhome shirt a special thing and hopefully one of your favourites."

You can follow LHOME with their twitter, flickr and youtube.
