I used to sell my merchandise out of a shop called "Hempire Whistler". Adam, the owner was a big supporter of my music and hip hop culture in general. After a solid run he decided to move back to Fernie, BC where his sister runs another shop. I decided to custom embroider these hoodies to keep the legacy alive.
As for the threads, HTNaturals has been a staple eco-business for 15 years. They started out as Hemptown in 1994 making primarily hemp clothing using the clever tag line "Want to change the world? Change your shirt!" 15 years of experience has brought about a respected, high quality sustainable clothing line that now encompasses bamboo, organic cotton and recycled soda bottles as well as hemp. Sadly, after 15 years, they have decided to stop making apparel. Their efforts will be focused on improving the quality and softness of hemp-fiber fabrics.
