Our Story

A hen under the laundry line

For the backyard flock.

I used to say I'd never leave the city. Then it became: what took me so long?

Out here, life slowed down in the best way. Laundry drying on the line. Feet in the grass. A good night's sleep. And all around me, neighbors with a few hens out back, people who can tell a Barred Rock from a Dominique at fifty paces and count heads at dusk without thinking about it.

I don't keep chickens myself. But I've come to love that world and the people in it: the patience, the know-how, the quiet pride in a good flock. Henway is my way of celebrating it.

The breeds come first

Every design starts with a single breed, drawn to get the details right: the barring on a Plymouth Rock, the lacing on a Wyandotte, the crest on a Silkie. If you keep them, you notice those things. The art should too.

Why the name

It comes from an old farm joke. "What's a henway?" "Oh, about three pounds." A name with a little wink, from a brand that takes the birds seriously.

How it's made

Each piece is printed to order when you buy it, so there's no warehouse of unsold shirts and far less waste.
