Founding 25
The hunē. Original

They were never
“just a pet.”

So their memory shouldn't feel like just another keepsake. hunē. creates a premium wearable heirloom preserved with a small portion of their ashes.

A piece of them. A story only your family knows. Something you can keep close.

The void they left behind

You still look for them sometimes.

It’s the place they used to sleep. The sound you swear you heard coming down the hallway. The leash still hanging where you left it.

People tell us that eventually, we have to move forward. But moving forward doesn't have to mean leaving them behind on a shelf.

That's why we created hunē.

The Seven story and hunē. Original garment
It started with Seven
Our beginning

It started with Seven.

For 15 years, he was there. Through life changing, children being born, hard seasons, and ordinary Tuesdays. And then one day, he wasn't.

We were left with thousands of photographs. And his ashes.

We could keep the urn somewhere safe. We could buy another memorial keepsake. But none of it felt like him.

Then we tried something different. A small portion of Seven's ashes was carefully incorporated into the material used to create his image on a shirt.

“A small piece of Seven was right there.”

Not packed away. Near us.

That shirt wasn't created to become a company. It was created because we missed our dog. But it led to a question we couldn't shake: What if we could give another family this feeling?

A fundamentally different memorial

This isn't a photo shirt.

A wearable heirloom created with a piece of them actually within it.
01

Not ashes inside a pouch.

Your companion is not hidden inside a container attached to clothing.

02

Not mass-produced.

Your artwork begins with their photograph, name, story, and the details that made them them.

03

Part of the piece itself.

A small portion of their ashes is carefully incorporated into the material used to create their design.

Something you can see. Something you can touch. Something you can keep near.
One companion. One family. One piece.

Introducing The hunē. Original.

Every piece begins with your companion's story and ends with an heirloom intentionally made for your family.

The hunē. Experience.

Every piece is presented as a complete heirloom. From the custom artwork you approve to the Certificate of Preservation and the respectful return of any unused ashes, the experience is designed around one companion and one family.

The complete hunē. Experience with three distinct Seven design variations, a Reveal Box, certificate, and premium tee and hoodie
01

Bespoke artwork

Three different moments. Three completely different designs. Your piece is built around your companion—not a template.

02

The Reveal Box

Your preservation arrives inside an intentional presentation experience made to honor what is inside.

03

Complete documentation

Your Certificate of Preservation, care guidance, and the applicable return of unused ashes are handled with care.

The responsibility

You're not simply ordering clothing. You're entrusting us with something that cannot be replaced.

Trust is the product.

01

A small portion only

We use only a small amount for the preservation process. You retain the overwhelming majority of their ashes.

02

Individual custody

Your preservation is linked to its individual order and handled through hunē.'s documented custody process.

03

Unused ashes returned

Anything entrusted that is not used for your piece is reconciled and securely returned.

A process worthy of your trust

The hunē. Preservation Journey

01

Tell us about them.

Before we ask you to send anything, we want to know who we're honoring: their name, story, favorite photograph, and the little thing nobody outside your family would understand.

02

We create their artwork.

Your photograph and story become the foundation for their custom design. You approve the final artwork before their ashes enter the preservation process.

03

Their Safe Passage begins.

Only after approval will we guide you through the next step. You receive clear instructions for providing the small amount required, backed by our documented custody process.

04

Their hunē. is created.

A small portion is carefully incorporated into the material used to create their memorial artwork. Their design is produced on your selected premium garment and inspected.

05

They come home.

Your preservation is intentionally presented with its Certificate of Preservation, care guidance, and the secure return of any unused ashes.

Then you get to hold it.

The beginning of hunē.

The Founding 25.

We're not launching hunē. to thousands of families. We're beginning with 25.

Twenty-five families willing to trust a new company with something irreplaceable. Twenty-five companions whose stories will forever be connected to the beginning of hunē.

We are limiting this to 25 because reverence cannot be rushed.

The Founding 25 Memorial

With your explicit written permission only, you may authorize a small additional portion to be preserved within a miniature version of your companion's hunē. tee and permanently honored in the Founding 25 Memorial.

Twenty-five miniature shirts. Twenty-five stories. And at the beginning of them all: Seven.

This will always be your choice.

If you prefer every unused portion returned home, that is exactly what we will do. There is no pressure and no difference in how your family is treated.
The questions underneath the questions

We know what you're thinking.

“I'm scared to send their ashes anywhere.”

You should be careful. They're irreplaceable. That's why hunē. doesn't begin by asking you to put ashes in the mail. First, tell us about them. Then we create their artwork. You approve it. Only then do we move forward. We don't believe trust should be rushed.

“How do I know they're actually my companion's ashes?”

Every preservation is connected to its individual order and follows hunē.'s documented custody process from receipt through production, reconciliation, and return. Our responsibility is to create a process that gives you a reason to trust us.

“How much of their ashes do you need?”

Only a small amount is required. Before anything is sent, you will receive clear instructions explaining what is needed. We do not want families sending more than necessary.

“What happens to the ashes you don't use?”

Anything unused is carefully accounted for and returned home with the completed hunē. The Founding 25 Memorial option is completely optional and requires explicit authorization.

“Can I wash it?”

The hunē. Original is being created as something you can wear. Every finished piece includes care instructions established for the final approved production process.

“Why does this cost $597 or $697?”

Because you're not buying a custom T-shirt. Every hunē. includes custom artwork, individual handling, preservation, custody documentation, personal communication, premium materials, quality inspection, and intentional presentation. There are cheaper ways to put a photograph on clothing. hunē. isn't trying to be one of them.

The first 25 families to carry them forward

Begin their preservation.

The hunē. Original Tee is $597. The hunē. Original Hoodie is $697. Every piece includes their bespoke artwork, the preservation process, documented custody, the Reveal Box, and the return of any unused ashes.

Your first step is simple

Tell us about them. You are not being asked to send ashes, make a purchase, or commit to a preservation today.

  • Share their story and favorite photo
  • We create their custom artwork for your approval
  • Only then do we provide Safe Passage instructions
Tell Us About Them

Submitting their story simply begins a respectful conversation about honoring them. You remain in control of every next step.

HOLDING U NEAR ETERNALLY.
hunē.
For the ones who never really left.
