As the Imperf journey of the human experience and creative Imperfection continues, our dreams and aspirations of pure craftsmanship have become the clearest forms of our ultimate destination. The innovation on, in and of the ‘self’ is the ultimate product we search to refine with our hard work.
In other words, it all started with a utilitarian mindset that we called a Shepherds Shirt and shoots, we never thought it would grow beyond that. Surprisingly,
It did and out of thanks and humility, we keep going back to the drawing board and watering the plants - so to speak - to make sure Shepherds Shirts (and all the other Kit) just get better and better. #happynewyear #imperfects #thehumanexperience #startwithashepherdsshirt
“Your goals in life will consistently change with you, you have to remember you are towing them, they are not towing you.’”
-Mike Lynch
Imperfs Founder, @immlynch gets deep in this special edition Volume #200 of Little Friday! He explores the chaos, thrills, and triumphs during this huge season of change and growth at Imperfects and speaks to how he thinks we can crack the code on the “best butter we can get for our mental toast.” Our favorite bit between the Team is the loud voice he takes around the idea that hard work is the truth and truth is hard work. Don’t miss this read, Fam!

Took a walk around Lahinch this AM and went to a coffee shop called Dodi. The raspberry muffin was all-time. The coffee was good. Went to a surf shop and saw an image of a beautiful wave. After inquiring where the wave was, he told us cliffs. Cliffs of Moher? Yes. And what is the wave called? Aileens. We are headed there right now. I’m excited. I have a feeling this will not be the last time I come to Aileens — notes jotted down quickly one inspired Irish morning. Naturally a Guinness was in the near future.
An afternoon at the skatepark with @danedanner . Dane is many things, Father, Husband, Artist, shaper, surfer-skater, chainstitch master, and sought after illustrator. If you were to just know his artistic talent, that would be enough to impress. However, what is really striking is the beautiful soul behind the artist. Just a brief talk will leave you feeling valued and seen, an ability deeply treasured in our world. Dane has done many illustrations for us here at Imperfects, and we’re honored every-time we get a chance to work with this legend.
San Diego meets Donegal. Modern DTC meets centuries of Irish craft.
"The Long Way Around" is a short film about what it looks like when a brand goes all the way to get the product right.

A Little Friday from a few moons ago when Micah and Mike had too many logs and not enough truck.
Speaking of logs: Fresh batch of Madera Noseriders just hit the site and Hq shop. Hit the link to scope!

Some things get better with age and we want to be one of them. While our shapes have changed and continue to influence our patterns in the development room, our love of the craft just continues to grow.
Some oldies but goodies from the first year of Imperf - captured on film by the one and only Uncle Titus - when Logan was testing out the first run of Eggballs (our 90s Football Skate we pressed at the Legendary Watson Laminates).

From the heart is where it all blooms
With intention and care, the details become discovered
The best things are intentional but unforced
Our greatest strength is our ability to be incorrect
Flow is essential but only found with pure effort
The mentality is colorful and textured
The fit is organic and naturally balanced
Mindful Utility is the only real goal
Sharing the art with you is the unexpected fortune.
Watch the wind and the Super Bloom will appear.

For years, I’ve dreamt of a platform to consistently share my creative mind and spread inspiration. That platform is Little Friday. It’s the heart and soul of our business, and I dedicate everything to it weekly.
