Let’s catch up! It’s (unofficially) summer & the weather’s heating up. Can I share a little bit with you while you enjoy your cold brew or whatever you’re having?
I’m closing the Lithe Collective shop!
It’s bittersweet news to write about but we’ve had a fun ride these past years & big thanks to all of you! But like all goods things, sometimes you just have to let it go. Not something to cry about, but to be honest - the shop’s momentum was uphill until it hit a detour when I could no longer do pop-up shops during the pandemic. I’ve struggled to keep the shop online & just couldn’t move enough inventory to sustain it. And really, it was kind of missing my feeling of pride & joy.
Soooooo… the sweeter news is I got something fresh for you! I’ve been working hard on this project from the backend & now I’m happy to share that I have a new shop! (Of course, right?!) I’m calling my new baby OH, HI! as a nod to the town of Ojai, California where me & my wife, KD got married. And it’s also one of our favorite drives for a weekend getaway. Ojai gives me smiles & happy memories, so I want to share that feeling with you.
Shop OH, HI! is my new creative brand offering expressive art & graphic designs in tees, sweatshirts & embroidered hats! And I’m hoping that your new favorite tee will inspire & also bring you smiles.
For production, I have partnered with a third-party print shop in Los Angeles, CA (for west coast orders) & Charlotte, NC (for east coast orders) whichever will be more efficient in shipping. Our eco-conscious, on-demand printing provides less waste & reduces overproduction, so we save costs both ways as sellers & shoppers.
So if you’re still reading up to here, THANKS AGAIN! And tada 🎉 - you can now visit www.shop-ohhi.com (link in bio) & let me know which one’s your favorite!
