The Chilly Willy Story

Chilly Willy, created for all those, surfers (couch and wave), festivalgoers, campers and hill side ramblers who thrive in the great outdoors.

The story began from a small self-built shed, hidden away at the bottom of a garden in New Cross Gate (Saaaaath London). Constructed from reclaimed pallets, doors, windows and skip finds, it was home to the first screen prints that lead to the creation of Chilly Willy Clothing.

Printed Garments

Screen printed Tees, hoods and sweats are available to buy along with calico bags and beanies. All items are printed to order, helping to reduce environmental impact and to guarantee ultimate freshness

Design

The goal of, 'Chilly Willy' is to document the art of screen printing, share the process and story with others whilst offering these prints to buy on an array of garments and accessories. The story can be followed from that original sketch to the final (sqeeged) t-shirt. The story so far can be explored here.

Screen Printing

All designs are screen printed in using waterbased inks that are less harmful to the environment than plastisol. These inks are free of plastics and PVC making them eco-friendly. The outcome has a more natural appearance and is soft to touch (soft-hand).
