thotfulthreadz1Thoughtful Threadz | Causal Clothing™ (yes, causal not casual) is not just apparel; it’s a lifestyle. The brand features original, thought-provoking, graphic designs that are printed through an eco-friendly process on American made, ethically manufactured tees, tanks, and more.

The lifestyle brand was created by the artist, Nicole Lynn Jones, to make a positive impact on the world, encourage intelligent discourse, promote open-mindedness, allow for different perspectives and ideas to be expressed, celebrate the human spirit, and inspire greatness.

She is currently running a Kickstarter project to fund the release of the Debut Collection InnovaTees™, which was inspired by many innovative people from creative fields; from artists and photographers to musicians, writers, and dancers.

thoughtfulthreadz2This collection features thought-provoking, graphic designs incorporating quotes from a number of different influential creative legends.  The InnovaTees™ Collection aims to inspire and encourage others to share their gifts and talents, and realize their potential to make an impact on the world around them by celebrating and recognizing those that have — in a fresh, new way.

A portion of all proceeds (after Kickstarter funding goal is met) will be donated to arts-based organizations that help promote, support, preserve, and make the arts accessible to everyone.

Not all apparel is created thoughtfully. So much of what people consume, and what they wear is made under poor conditions without regard for the environment or the people who inhabit it. Thoughtful Threadz | Causal Clothing™ is part of Nicole’s mission to change that. To make things in a socially responsible manner without harming the environment, to provide jobs, good working conditions and wages for others, and to help the economy grow and remain strong.

All of the apparel is made in the USA, and printed through an eco-friendly process utilizing water-based inks. This leads to a super soft and comfortable garment. Both men’s and women’s Tees featuring a modern, figure-flattering cut are made with 100% combed cotton. In addition to the colors pictured, each design is available in classic white.

thoughtfulthreadz3Successful funding via Kickstarter will help Thoughtful Threadz™ to produce and release the Debut Collection InnovaTees™. The company has been formed, lawyers consulted, designs created, manufacturing process finalized, website started, copyrights registered, and everything is ready to go! The funds raised will be used for:

– Minimums of each design to be printed
– Postcards, stickers, and buttons to be printed

This will allow for the Kickstarter rewards to be fulfilled and for a small inventory of the InnovaTees™ Collection to be launched online.

All of the initial twenty InnovaTees™ designs are available as rewards through the Kickstarter project. Help Thoughtful Threadz | Causal Clothing™ in their mission to “change the world one tee at a time”™!
