Kid's Organic Cotton T-Shirts
After 11 years of screen printing 1000’s of Zak the Collie Dog t-shirts at Cherrydidi HQ and selling through the Cherrydidi high street shops in the Lake District, we’re so proud to be expanding the Zak the Collie Dog clothing range by adding new designs and collections.
The Cherrydidi Online Gift Shop is home to Zak the Collie Dog ethical clothing range, still designed by Mr H at Zak the Collie Dog HQ, but we are now based on the Isle of Arran.
All designs are created by Ade Harmer Art for the Zak the Collie Dog Collection. The main design is as you see in the images and every t-shirt has the iconic Zak the Collie Dog logo tastefully printed at the bottom left-hand side of the t-shirt.
All our t-shirts are ORGANIC COTTON
KID’S MINI CREATOR Organic Cotton T-shirt – Stanley / Stella
A t-shirt for kids, the Stella /Stella Mini Creator 100% organic cotton t-shirt has classic proportions, is a medium fit and single jersey fabric making this iconic kids' t-shirt look great wear after wear. Sizing: 3-4yrs, 5-6, 7-8, 9-11, 12-13yrs – refer to image and sizing chart for specific dimensions. Fabric Weight: 155gsm
PRINTING - if Mr H is unable to screen-print your t-shirt at Zak the Collie Dog HQ due to the design (more than one colour-way), we are pleased to be working with family owned, Lancashire based business, Inkthreadable, an established print-on-demand service.
Like screen printing at Zak the Collie Dog HQ, Inkthreadable are committed to operating under ethical and sustainable practices during their production processes. Singing from our hymn sheet their sustainability journey began in 2017 when they moved to Kornit DTG printers (their inks are both vegan and eco-friendly) and a paperless order management system, saving 8 tonnes of paper, or 192 trees, each year! The inks are also OEKO-TEX® approved which means they don't contain any regulated or unregulated chemicals harmful to the environment.
ETHICAL CLOTHING - In 2018 Inkthreadable partnered with “Stanley / Stella, a premium clothing brand that’s eco-friendly with a strong social responsibility policy. Sustainability is at their core, and they stand by this with an exclusively sustainable product collection, most of their products are organic cotton and those that aren’t are made from recycled materials. The brand's vision and ethical policies align perfectly with Inkthreadable, they quickly became their highest recommended and top selling brand so of course this seemed like the perfect fit for the Zak the Collie Dog clothing choice.
PACKAGING - like Zak the Collie Dog in 2018, after discovering that 14 million tons of plastic end up in our oceans each year, Inkthreadable’s co-founder Amy made it her mission to remove plastic from their packaging so as before you will receive your Zak the Collie dog t-shirt with minimal packaging.
A little more about Stanley/Stella - Sustainability is at the heart of their identity. From day one, they have been dedicated to ethical practices and mastering the entire value chain, ensuring traceability from seed to garment. The quality, durability, and recyclability of a garment begin with fibre selection, which plays a key role in its environmental impact. Cotton like no other - They are committed to producing premium, sustainable apparel that not only looks and feels exceptional but also reflects their commitment to the planet. Crafted from the finest 100% organic cotton, their garments deliver outstanding decoration results, along with exceptional comfort, style and hand feel.
HARMER FAMILY RECOMMENDATIONS - Mr & Mrs H, in fact the whole Harmer family, have tried and tested the quality of the clothing along with wearing Mr H’s designs! We’re so pleased to be offering Stanley / Stella as it’s a premium sustainable organic clothing apparel and to be working with a Lancashire family business who offer a sustainable print on demand service.
Unisex/Men’s T-shirts – Mr H’s fave is the ‘Llama – no cause for alarm’ printed on cotton pink using the Stanley / Stella Crafter tee.
Women’s T-shirts – Mrs H’s fave is ‘Gardening is beyond be leaf’ printed on Caribbean blue on the Stella Serena scoop neck tee.
Kids T-shirts – Lil’s (13) went for ‘Eat, Sleep, Ride, Repeat’ (you can guess what she’s in to!) on black using an XS Stella Serena tee and Mikey’s (11) fave is his Dad’s ‘Space Cat’ design in Blue Soul on the Stanley / Stella Mini Creator tee.
