Founded in 1975 in rural Vermont by Barry T. Chouinard, Comfort Colors pioneered the garment-dyeing process that defines its signature aesthetic. Chouinard, who started with an old washing machine, developed a technique of dyeing garments after they are sewn, resulting in a distinctively soft, lived-in feel and a muted, vintage-inspired color palette. Acquired by Gildan in 2015, the brand has maintained its status as a staple in the custom apparel and blank t-shirt market, particularly favored by college students, Greek life, and independent designers.
