CPFM "Acidic Lime" Dyed Tee

Description: One of the first dyed tees that Cactus Plant Flea Market (CPFM) experimented with. This tee was hand dyed through a unique method recreating a smokey appearance - a meticulous and timely process necessary for a 1/1 product. The pH scale is displayed in skinny, raised puff print. Made in limited quantities due to the complex manufacturing nature.

ACIDIC LIME.......... a lesson in pH - these shirts have been hand dyed with COCHINEAL carmine — a process that concentrates the red bodies of cochineal bugs that live and eat solely on the nopal cactus. each garment is then dipped in a secondary iron dye fixative bath. the change in pH creates a complex for purple
As this is a natural dye the shirts have an unusual cochineal sludge scent to them. spotting in color is intentional. limited production.

Condition: 7.5/10, regular wear and use
