WELCOME TO MONTANA MUD SHIRTS !
Montana Mud Shirts
The ground of Montana holds great stories, and so do our Montana Mud Shirts. Colored only with genuine dirt, designed by local artists, and screen printed, our shirts represent the best of “Made in Montana.”
The hand-crafted effort begins when we hand-dig clay from the mountains. In our Missoula, Montana, shop, the clay is mixed with water to create a rich terra-cotta colored mud, which we work into 100% cotton shirts. The clay’s iron oxide works as a 100% natural dye, giving each shirt its own unique color. No chemicals. No artificial additives. We commission local, independent artists to create our designs, which we screen print by hand onto each shirt. Then, we cure the color by heating each shirt. That’s our process—simple, quality, with the Montana touch.
Caring for your shirt: For the first wash, we suggest washing separately in cold water. After that, just treat it as though it’s your favorite shirt (cause it probably is your favorite by now). Your Montana Mud Shirt will soften over time and, like a great pair of jeans, it’ll fade slightly with time.
