ABOUT US
ALT/ANML is made for the wired, the wild, and the nocturnal - the alt animals who thrive in the shadows and dance to their own rhythms.
Inspired by the way creatures build relationships through sound, weâve developed a unique fusion of science and EDM culture, creating merch that speaks to both the animal nerd and the night owl in all of us.
This isnât just merch; itâs science communication you can wear like a badge of honor. Everything we create is as loud and proud as the creatures we celebrate.
And it also makes being a science nerd cooler than ever.
WHAT SETS US APART
Sick of the same flimsy Gildan tees? Or worse⌠shirts with no brand tag at all? Yeah, us too.
Thatâs why weâre proud to name-drop: we use premium streetwear blanks from Shaka Wear - built to last, actually comfortable, and not something youâll relegate to pajama duty after two washes.
Every piece is silkscreened by hand at Gowanus Print Lab in Brooklyn. Our acrylic pins come from Sira Print, a family-owned shop in Toronto - our former home until January 2025. Stickers and prints? Hand-printed, laminated, and cut with care right at home.
Everything we offer is created in small batches - never mass-produced and never drop shipped. That means we see, touch, and check every single piece before it reaches you. Because if itâs got our name on it, itâs going to be something weâd wear ourselves.
We believe every piece should feel intentional, from the materials chosen to the hands that make it, resulting in products built to be worn, used, and loved for years.
WANNA COLLABORATE?
Got a cool idea for a design? Interested in consigning our merch? Want to feature ALT/ANML at your event or pop-up? Or maybe youâve got something special in mind that doesnât quite fit the usual boxes?
Hit us up! Weâre all about creative partnerships that push boundaries and bring the wild, wired vibe to new places.

Nothing on the calendar just yet - weâre still wrangling the cosmic forces (and waiting on applications). Stay tuned.
