The OG Collection

Thread,
never ink.

Every mark on a Ripaware garment begins as an original handstyle. Then it’s embroidered, never printed. Every run is capped before it opens. When a drop closes, it never reopens.

The House Mark

One mark.
Every ground.

The monogram and the handstyle are drawn by hand, then redrawn for every surface they land on. Velvet, canvas, walnut, concrete, leather, denim and corduroy each take a different thread weight, outline and fill so the mark reads at the same strength on all of them.

The mark on walnut: the burgundy and gold Ripaware lockup, brass wax seal and keyrings, embroidered denim panel, woven patches and monogrammed beanies — **The monogram** · one drawing, every ground

The Mark · Est. 2024

One R, three trades.

The monogram is drawn once, by hand. Then it's executed three ways: cast in brass for the pin, built in thread at full chest scale, burned into full-grain leather. If a piece doesn't carry the R on the chest, the lining or the zip-pull, it doesn't leave the studio.

Gold hardware on slate: the cast monogram emblem, enamel pins, embossed leather wallet and the OG Collection brass plate — **Brass** · the pin, cast and polished

The embroidered back panel: Ripaware in gold thread over burgundy filigree on black canvas, Premium Street Apparel, OG Collection Premium — **Canvas** · the back panel

Leather goods on the bench: the circular crest patch, keyrings, embossed notebooks, denim OG Collection patch and the brass stamp

Colour Study

Every piece
carries the R.

The mark is redrawn for every ground it sits on. Thread weight, outline and fill all shift so it holds the same optical strength on velvet as on raw denim, cast brass or full-grain leather. Nothing is scaled and reused.

The Studio

Where it gets made.

Everything starts on the bench: the block, the fabric, the patch, the colourway called on the spot. Nothing leaves until the mark sits right on it.

The bench: navy and cream script crewnecks, the green zip jacket, a blue hoodie and the woven monogram patches — **The wall** · the mark, full scale

The rack flat: green zip jacket, blue monogram hoodie, rust graffiti hoodie, caps and the OG Collection panel — **The bench** · patch, block, colourway

The Collection

One garment for
every sense.

Five chapters, five ways a piece is felt before it’s seen twice. Each chapter carries the same original lettering: script, monogram and the quiet R, built in thread.

Four grounds, one mark: gold on green nylon, gold script on black fleece, burgundy monogram on white, gold on black

Chapter 01

Sight.

Handstyle first. The script throwie and the blackletter monogram are drawn by hand, then rebuilt stitch-by-stitch at full chest scale. Legible across a street, unmistakable across a room.

Chapter 02

Sound.

Built for headphones-on hours. The woven-strap beanie seats over-ears cleanly; ribbed cuffs and bonded seams keep everything silent when you move. No rustle, no squeak. City static only.

Chapter 04

Scent.

Every piece ships in a cedar-lined box with a lavender wash card. Garment-dyed, enzyme-washed, aired. It smells like something kept, not something shipped.

Taste.

The whole point. Cut for late markets, first trains and long nights. Pieces that read considered without asking for attention. Taste is the sense you can’t fake.

How a piece is made

Hand to thread.

Four stages, and the mark is redrawn at every one. Nothing is scaled from a previous run, which is why two colourways of the same style never carry an identical stitch path.

Drawn

The mark starts on paper, with a marker, at the size it will end up. No vector tracing of an old file.

Digitised

Each stroke is mapped to a stitch path by hand: entry, direction, density, pull compensation. One garment, one file.

Stitched

Two passes. Fill first, then the outline sits proud on top. 9,140 stitches, 11 colours on the full chest mark.

Finished

Garment dyed, enzyme washed, aired, then boxed in cedar with the numbered card. Then the run closes.

not replaced.

“Ink sits on a garment. Thread becomes it. Nothing we make can be reprinted · only re-earned, second-hand, at whatever the street decides it’s worth.”

Stockists

See it in person.

The embroidery doesn’t photograph. It has to be handled. Ripaware sits with a small circle of stockists, chosen slowly. Wholesale enquiries through the contact page; approved doors get the full five chapters.

Stockist enquiries

Before you ask

The questions.

Will this restock?

No. Every run is capped before it opens, the number is on the page, and when it reads sold out it is closed for good. We have never restocked a run and we do not intend to.

Why is it embroidered and not printed?

Print sits on top of a garment and wears off it. Thread is worked into the cloth, so the mark ages at the same rate as the piece around it.

What size should I take?

Outerwear is boxy and drops one size. Fleece is relaxed and true to size. Crop styles run short by design. Full measurements sit on every product page.

Do you ship outside Australia?

Yes, worldwide and tracked. Duties are calculated at checkout so nothing lands as a surprise at your door.

Can I return it?

Thirty days, unworn, tags attached. Made-to-order and numbered pieces are the exception and are marked as such before you buy.

Something came apart. Now what?

Send it back. We re-stitch our own embroidery free, for as long as the piece exists, including pieces bought second hand.

How do I make sure I get my size?

Sign up for first access. The list is emailed before the page opens and the run is cut to the sizes ordered. No deposit, no queue, no charge until Drop 001 actually opens.

Do you wholesale?
