Here at Fifth Column, we’re proud to be an official dealer of Continental Clothing Company in London. The Continental brand started in the street markets and music venues of the Capital around 1996. It quickly became a synonym for on-trend blank garments designed to be printed and embroidered due to fit and style. And a byword for responsible supply. This innovative, ethical manufacturer of plain apparel have managed to keep that position ever since. And their current range of quality plain t-shirts, sweatshirts and hoods is still true to its roots. By which we mean high quality clothing which has sustainability right at its heart. And their exciting collection isn’t limited to clothes. They also offer other merchandise which is purpose made for the customisation market. That’s to say, items like headwear, accessories such as tote bags, and workwear like aprons. All of which is made to exacting ethical standards.

Which brings us to their ethical and sustainable standing. We simply have to take a moment to talk about this. Firstly because it’s fundamental to how they began and also to their continued popularity and success. And secondly because these aspects of creating custom branded merchandise are incredibly important to us as garment decorators.
