The archive · Est. 2019
We only make what we can finish by hand.
ARQIVE started with 40 tees screen-printed on a kitchen table in Peckham. Six years on we still cut everything within four miles of that flat, and we still refuse to restock. A pattern gets one run. Then it goes in the archive and stays there.
Every garment carries a stamped run number, so you know exactly how many of them exist. Usually it's fewer than you'd like.
