The Mari Lwyd is a tradition that dates back to the 1800’s.
A horse’s skull is decorated in ribbons, bells and usually a white cloth, then taken from house to house. The Mari Lwyd would ask for permission to enter the occupant’s home in the form of song, and the occupant would have to reply, also in song, a reason as to why they should not be allowed to enter.
This ritual would go back and forth until one party gave up and either the Mari Lwyd moved on to another house or the residents would let the Mari Lwyd and it’s followers enter the house for food and drinks.
We wanted to honour this tradition on the back of this hoodie and we’re amazed by how it has turned out. Everyone we have shown this design to has recognised it instantly so we know that we have managed to capture the tradition in this hoodie.
We have added the words “Mari Lwyd” down each of the arms, this gives the hoodie a modern twist and further showcases this tradition.
Made out of 85% organic ring-spun combed cotton and 15% recycled polyester.
“And with a love that never fails, we'll kiss away each hour of hiraeth, when you come home again to Wales.”
Hiraeth is a feeling. The word has no direct corresponding word in English, but its closest derivative would be that feeling you get when you are homesick.
What we love most about our “Hiraeth” unisex t-shirt, is that it displays more of the Welsh culture. The back of the T-shirt is a design based on a traditional carthen weaving pattern that has been used in Wales for hundreds of years, and is still used by wool farms all over Wales to this day.
This unisex t-shirt is 100% organic ring-spun combed cotton; stronger, durable, wear-proof and a comfier feeling.

A homage to the Welsh dragon design that we kept seeing everywhere.
This neon skull with dragon horns felt like a fun idea to add a splash of colour to a moody design. Details include “Rhinwedd” written up the full horn and “Cymru” tattooed over the eye socket. We think this t-shirt has a lot of character.
