FD|SHRT is pivoting!

A big move to a new city can change your whole perspective. Surrounded by so many brilliant new kitchens and innovative chefs, I realized FD|SHRT belonged right here on the ground level.

While I loved our drop-ship origins and appreciate every single person wearing the tees nationwide, I’m officially shifting gears to focus on bulk partnerships with local restaurants.

Chefs spend countless hours perfecting dishes and creating entire environments for their guests. Plain and simple, I want to make gear that celebrates that. From seasonal menu highlights to neighborhood-famous comfort food, I’m looking to collaborate directly with local spots to design clean, modern, high-impact apparel.

More than just printing shirts, the goal is to build a collective of like-minded restaurants that care about the neighborhood as much as the food. Every FD|SHRT order directly benefits a local cause, with collective participants voting each quarter on where the support goes.

The ambition is simple. I want people to walk down the sidewalk, spot a piece of gear, and immediately recognize our signature style. FD|SHRT exists strictly to champion local food culture, support great causes, and build real roots in our community.
