Why Inkdnylon Custom Apparel is Supporting GOAT SKIN Chicago
Share
At Inkdnylon Custom Apparel, we’ve worked with every blank in the business. Gildan. Bella + Canvas. Polyester dri-fit. We’ve printed and embroidered on them all. They’re solid choices for many projects. For businesses needing affordable, reliable apparel, those blanks get the job done.
But sometimes, I come across a brand that makes me stop and say: “This is different.”
Recently, I had the pleasure of working with a fellow Chicagoan who’s doing just that—pushing the boundaries of what premium apparel can be. I’m talking about GOAT SKIN Chicago.
They’re a new luxury apparel brand out of Chicago, and even though they’re just getting started, they’re already miles ahead of what I usually see in this industry.
Let me be real: GOAT SKIN Chicago isn’t using standard blanks. Their garments are custom-made from scratch—and it shows in every detail.
They’re preparing to launch tees that are genuinely unbelievable. These aren’t your typical cotton shirts. They’re crafted from a blend of silk and organic cotton—an incredibly rare combo in apparel. The feel? Next-level soft. There’s a natural drape and a subtle sheen that signals high-end fashion. When I first touched one of their sample tees, I could immediately tell this was something special. It felt substantial yet feather-light, and it held shape in a way cheaper fabrics just can’t.
And I’ll be honest—working with a tee of this material was intimidating. In the custom apparel world, mistakes happen. A hoop mark, a needle break, a stitch slightly off-center—it happens even to the best of us. On typical blanks, you just pull another shirt off the shelf and start over. But with a shirt made of silk and organic cotton that’s custom-built from scratch? There’s no easy replacement. That’s the kind of pressure that comes with working on true luxury pieces.
Most brands buy blanks from the same suppliers. GOAT SKIN Chicago is building garments from the ground up. No Gildan. No Bella. No polyester dri-fit. Their shirts are custom, and you can tell the moment you hold one in your hands.
Then there’s the jade. Floating flower jade, to be specific. It’s not on the tees—they’re using it in some of their logo pieces and accessories. I’ve been around a lot of embellishments in this business—sequins, rhinestones, appliqué, metallic threads. But I’ve never seen anything like floating flower jade used the way GOAT SKIN Chicago uses it. The jade is natural, organic, and every piece is unique. They’re not just slapping logos on garments—they’re integrating real materials into designs in subtle, elegant ways.
These floating flower jade pieces aren’t just decorative. They’re symbols. Statements. Markers of something rare and enduring. When I first saw how they were incorporating jade into their logo pieces, it genuinely blew me away.
It’s details like that which set GOAT SKIN Chicago apart. They’re not just making clothes—they’re creating pieces with real meaning. They call it Sovereign Wear.
“Sovereign Wear” isn’t just a marketing term. It’s GOAT SKIN Chicago’s philosophy. They believe clothing should reflect quiet confidence, personal power, and a sense of identity rather than simply chasing trends.
Their garments carry weight in the best possible way. They’re made to feel significant—not because they’re flashy, but because they’re crafted with purpose. It’s luxury that whispers rather than screams.
That mindset is exactly what we believe in at Inkdnylon Custom Apparel. We’re passionate about helping brands create pieces that truly mean something—whether it’s a small business tee or a luxury garment for a brand like GOAT SKIN Chicago.
GOAT SKIN Chicago is still new, but believe me—they’re coming. From the craftsmanship in their logo pieces to the launch of their silk and organic cotton tees, they’re creating apparel I simply don’t see from most brands in this industry.
Their work is thoughtful, high-end, and built for customers who want more than just a shirt—they want something that reigns.
At Inkdnylon Custom Apparel, our business is helping people bring their visions to life. We’ve worked with startups looking to launch their first line, as well as established brands fine-tuning their collections. We love collaborating with anyone who cares deeply about quality and storytelling.
But every so often, I come across a brand going so far beyond the norm that I feel compelled to help them get noticed. That’s why I’m supporting GOAT SKIN Chicago. Because true luxury deserves to be seen. And as a fellow Chicagoan, I’m proud to stand behind a brand doing things the right way.
