By definition - 'Upcycling is the reuse of otherwise discarded objects or materials in such a way as to create a product of higher quality or value than the original' In simple terms - upcycling continues the life of something - and adds value to it. Here at Fannaf Original we believe that clothes should be as unique as the people that wear them! This is why we love offering truely original prints and one of pieces. Basically, upcycling gives a new lease of life to something that is at the end of it's intended lifespan and may otherwise be deemed as 'waste'. And by doing so - keeps it from becoming waste and therefore prevents it from harming the Mother Gaia.

Products that have been upcycled require skill and imagination to transform them into something new. Fannaf Original produce no two garments the same and each one poses a new challenge to overcome. There is a lot of time and labour that goes into assessing, desiging and printing artwork for each piece. This is why upcycled products can be more expensive - because they can be more labour intensive. But their cost to Mother Gaia is far, far less which is much, much more important

Of course! All of our designs are unique to Fannaf Original and we enjoy experimenting with how we present designs on different styles of clothing. If you see a print that you would really love to wear, but you would prefer a different selection of colours, sizing or a particular garment, then please reach out to us. We would be more than happy to accomodate to the best of our ability.

As this is an upcycle brand, here at Fannaf Original we use worn clothes to reutilize. This means the condition of the clothes vary and although we will fix discrepancies when they are discovered, some may go unseen. We always aim for the highest quality of goods and customer satisfastion, therefore the clothes will be presented as prestige as we can achieve with each unqiue garment.

As this is an upcycle brand, all pieces are truly unique and can not always be repeated exactly. This would depend on the base clothing piece and whether it could be sourced again. However, if you see a piece you like and would like it recreated, we will do our best to asist, with understanding there may be slight differences.

Fannaf Original is based in the Midlands, England.

The size of each garment is included in the description of each product page. If you have read the sizing provided but desire more indepth details, then reach out to us and we would be more than happy to assist.

Yes, absolutely! Ideally, you'll want to provide us with a high quality image of your logo for production, preferably a vector PDF file with all fonts converted to outlines and no empty margins around the sides. However, if you cant provide the converted version, then send us the image you have and we can still move forward with the process.

The lifespan of any of our products is as short or long as the products' caregiver allows. Decals placed inside on a wall compared to on a vehicle will always stay for longer, due to the surrounding conditions. The average lifespan of our decals is up to 5 years based on elemental exposure; You can expect at least 3 years for outdoor use before shrinkage or fading starts to occur.

All the printed designs can go into the washing machine; best suited to a low temperature. Iron on the inside of the vinyl piece to avoid damage. Avoid using the tumble dryer for most pieces, this will weaken or distress the artwork. Most jackets are considered fragile due to the embellishments, so it is advisory to wash these pieces by hand. To increase longevity and space out time between washes, it is also advised to purchase an anti-bacterial underarm spray for the garment.

Here at Fannaf Original, we are expanding our operations; We have now partnered with Printful, which will be fulfilling all of our print to order pieces. All the designs are laid out for customers to view on brand new pieces (not upcycled), nothing is printed untill an order is made. This reduces waste as it means things are not being made without somebody wanting to purchase the product. However, as the making process begins after the order is placed, this means it will take longer to recieve your desired product.

If you have purchased an already made piece from our website, as well as ordering a print to order product, these may arrive seperately even if was put through as the same order. This is because the products are arriving to you from different locations and if it is a print to order piece, this will naturally take longer to be fulfilled.
