For Him:

CULT OF ONE DENIM

Awesome one-of-a-kind handmade denim pieces made by Dominic Murray. Shop items include plain and embroidered denim aprons, printed bandanas and a “Denim for bread” headrest bag which is part of a project that is focused on providing those less fortunate with commodities they so desperately need. His fashion items are currently only for sale online on his website.

“CULT OF ONE is an ideal. It is a process of development and craft, whereby each piece is made by one set of hands, from start to finish and treated as the unique piece it is.”
