[02] The Man Behind It

Adam
Forge
Detroit

Adam doesn't make things to sell them. He makes them because the craft demands it. A custom knife maker from Detroit who understands that the best tools — and the best clothes — aren't assembled. They're forged under pressure.

Root & Cap is the brand that wears the same philosophy his blades carry. No shortcuts. No trends. Just craft, city, and identity.

[04] How It's Made

The
Process

04 / Steps
01 Design

Every graphic starts as a sketch. Referencing real welding machines, real culture, real Detroit. Nothing is stock.

02 The Blank

District Tri Tee. 50/25/25 poly-cotton-rayon. Soft enough to wear under a hood all day, side-seamed so it doesn't twist when you reach. Pre-shrunk — what you put on Monday still fits Friday.

03 Screen Print

No DTG shortcuts. Ink you can feel, colors that hold through every wash, in limited numbered runs.

04 Shipped

Folded. Tagged. Wrapped. Every order ships like it matters — because at Root & Cap, it does.
