“Dirty and Distressed” is a new line of wasteland apparel and accessories designed for the survivor in you. All items in the “Dirty and Distressed” line are handmade and individually detailed, and while some items may appear similar, each is a one of a kind.

Most of our Garments begin their life as “NEW” 100% cotton clothing, and are carefully distressed, screened, airbrushed and dyed in multiple stages to capture that perfect holocaustic feel, and while appearances may be deceiving, I assure you they are clean.

Our line of accessories are all hand made from quality materials and scavenged (found) objects and are then cut, carved, forged ,hammered, bent and twisted into useful forms. A variety of finishes are applied, ranging from rough to polished (dependant upon the desired final result) and each item is painstakingly (sometime painfully) detailed.

So whatever your mission, be it roaming the desolate wasteland, crawling through the back alleys of an urban jungle, or just looking cool in the local nightclub, you won’t be disappointed with this statement of originality.

Thank you for looking and feedback is always welcome.

In a bid to increase visibility of my “Dirty and Distressed” apparel and accessories I have created a myspace page [link] . If you have a myspace profile and would like to be added as a friend please stop by and drop me a line. If you know anyone else that would be interested in my particular (peculiar)brand of fashion, please point them in my direction.
I would also like to thank everyone for the great feedback and comments I have received thus far and thank you for your continued support and encouragement. Good luck out there…C.A.Hale

Hey C., yesterday my girlfriend and I spent the afternoon and evening with your very sweet cousin and our dear friend Leslie... I am enamored with the shirt you did for me! THANK YOU!!! I would actually like to join forces with you in creating greatness for wastelanders out there like ourselves. That being said, I'm not sure if Leslie told you but I'm toying around with the idea of making Raider themed goggles....... :D

Hey…sorry for the slow response…you caught me on vacation. I am really glad you like the shirt. It was interesting to discover that we were both aware of each others work previously to finding out we had a mutual contact (it really is a small world). Leslie did tell me you were thinking about making some wasteland goggles and I would love to see what you come up with. I always liked your Eye Tanks. One of the nice things I am finding is that steam punk and wasteland genres mess rather nicely at several points…anyways enough rambling. Please feel free to contact me with any other thoughts. Thanks and good luck out there…C.A.Hale

Your stuff is absolutely amazing!

I've been looking at your Etsy store and I'm definitely going to have to buy a few things =3
Have you done many skirts or pants at all? Or is it usually/only shirts and accessories?

Hello Karithina…thank you for the compliment. I’m glad you like my tattered rags. As for skirts and pants I have been toying around with exactly how I am going to do them, much less make them available for purchase. Shirts can be tricky enough with a wide range of sizes and on my current budget pants and skirts are nearly impossible to cove what I would need to stock my shop appropriately. However I am looking into some drawstring and baggy style clothing that I may be able to customize…so stay tuned, they may be turning up soon. Thanks and good luck out there.
