About Us

A decade ago I started Ugmonk as a side project to design a few high-quality tees that I personally wanted. A lot has changed since then, but our core mission hasn’t. Maybe better viewed as a renewed Ugmonk, the New Ugmonk raises the bar on quality, experience, and aesthetic — a matured vision for creating and curating beautiful, functional products. 
 

The original Ugmonk was focused on applying graphic design to different existing objects. With our renewed vision, we will also draw attention to the design of the objects themselves. For example, our new custom Essential Tees…

NEW CUSTOM TEES

Tees have been the core of Ugmonk’s product offering since day one. We’ve always sought out the the best off-the-shelf tees, but we've never been 100% happy with the available options. So we decided it was time to make our own Ugmonk tees right here in the USA.

We’re really excited to introduce our new custom tees. Over the years, I've handled and worn hundreds of tees and can honestly say that these are my all-time favorite. They are my daily go-to tees and I think you're going to love them. These tees will be available as part of our Essential Tees collection and will also be the new canvas for timeless Ugmonk designs.

Developed with and produced by our manufacturer in Los Angeles, California, each tee is carefully cut and sewn by hand. The tees are then enzyme washed for added softness and garment dyed to our own custom colors. The garment dye process creates subtle variations of color, making each tee truly unique. Finally, the tees are pre-shrunk so that they will fit the same on day one as day one hundred.
