The original breed skeleton tees

Skeledog
is back.

In 2007, Skeledog shirts were sold in pet shops and design shops around the world, from design boutiques in NYC to cute little pet stores in Tokyo. Write-ups on the shirts (not paid marketing!) graced the pages of most major dog magazines, and the shirts even landed on the Today show as a best pet-related Christmas gift idea.

But the t-shirt business was far more labor-intensive for a design shop in 2007, and the grind eventually wore down the Skeledog team. Since then, technology has made the business much more creator- and designer-friendly. And the brand, design and aesthetic of Skeledog proved timeless during its two-decade hiatus, with the original founder constantly being asked to launch the shirts again.

Now, Skeledog is officially back.

Original breed. Original bones.

Each breed design is only available in the designer-chosen color scheme shown. The color combinations have been chosen strategically based on breed characteristics, color theory and general Skeledog aesthetics.

The return

The bones never left.

Skeledog is being rebuilt from its original artwork archive—breed by breed, bone by bone. We are starting where it began: the shirts. The brand is designed to grow into a broader world of Skeledog products over time.

What makes Skeledog different

Loving your dog is the easy part. Wearing that love well is harder. Nobody really wants a shirt with their dog’s photo pasted onto it—it looks sloppy, and it lacks sophistication. Skeledog takes that same immense love and pairs it with real design: original skeletal line art, playful color and crisp branding. The result is apparel that catches the eye of people with good design sense who have never owned a dog, and still feels made for the person who knows the Dachshund or French Bulldog is the center of the universe.
