The brief

Introducing Wheel&Barrow

Wheel&Barrow is an Australian homewares retailer with stores across the eastern states. Linda Muratore needed apparel that works two ways: a uniform that identifies staff on the floor, and a retail item customers buy and wear out of the store. That set a higher bar on garment quality and print finish than a standard staff run.

“The products were fantastic. We’re very, very happy. The quality was great. We sold through most of what we had as well.”

The build

How we built it

We matched the artwork to each garment so the print reads at the same weight on a tee and on heavier hoodie fleece, confirmed the proofs and the size run with Linda, then produced both lines together to keep colour consistent across the range.

The result

What our client got back

Both lines arrived together and went onto the floor. The quality held up to retail scrutiny and most of the stock sold through, giving Wheel&Barrow a branded apparel range it can restock from an approved artwork file we hold.
