Our story — Boneyard Trading Co.
Built for the people who build things.
Boneyard makes graphic tees for the skilled trades — heavyweight cotton, original trade art printed heavy, and humor only the crew gets. No fast-fashion filler. No clip-art. Just shirts worth the shift.
Why we started
It started in a gravel lot at 5 a.m. — coffee gone cold, hands already dirty.
We were sick of trade shirts that fell apart by the second wash and "vintage" tees printed with the same tired clip-art everybody else uses. So we made our own. Boneyard is for the ones who show up when it’s miserable out — who earn the day instead of clocking it. Every design starts with a real trade and ends with a line you’d actually wear on the job. Heavy cotton, dark ink, drawn by hand, printed to order. That’s the whole pitch.
I started Boneyard because every trade tee out there was either a paper-thin freebie or clip-art junk. We make the shirt I wanted on the job — heavy, honest, and funny if you know the work.

01 — The crew
A skeleton crew
with standards.
Every shirt here is built for someone who actually does the work — the sparky, the welder, the framer, the guy who’s first on site and last to leave. If a design wouldn’t get a nod in the parking lot at 6 a.m., it never makes the rack.
No corners cut
Why ours hold up
Heavyweight cotton
6.0oz ringspun that holds its shape and outlasts the shift. No paper-thin freebie tees that go see-through by July.
Printed to order
Nothing sits in a warehouse going stale. Your shirt is made when you order it, then shipped — less waste, fresher print.
Original trade art
Real artwork drawn for the trade — printed to order, built to take a beating. Not stock clip-art slapped on a blank. Every line is ours.
02 — Drawn for the trade
Drawn by hand.
Printed clean.
We start every shirt with a sketch and a punchline, not a template. The skull gets posed for the trade, the type gets set tight, and it gets printed heavy on heavyweight cotton so it survives the wash, the wear, and the worksite. One clean hero design per tee — never a busy collage.
