When it comes to live music, Goose has built a reputation for creating nights that fans never forget. At Humbles™, we wanted to capture that same spirit of individuality, spontaneity, and craft in a collection that feels just as alive as a Goose show. That’s how the Goose Hand-Colored Highlighter Collection came to life.

The collaboration is made to order, one of a kind, and a true celebration of Goose’s artistry and the craft of printing at Humbles™.

Goose: A Band That Lives in the Moment

Goose has quickly become one of the most talked about bands in live music. Known for their mix of improvisation, layered musicianship, and dynamic songwriting, they have built a devoted community that thrives on the fact that no two shows are ever the same.

That ethos was the inspiration for this collection. Just like a Goose setlist or jam, every shirt in the Highlighter Collection is familiar at its core but uniquely shaped by the moment. Recognizable, yet one of a kind.

The Process: Where Printing Meets Hand Finishing

Every piece in the Goose Highlighter Collection is the result of a layered process that combines traditional craftsmanship with individual artistry. Nothing here is automated or mass produced. Each order is created step by step, with care and intention.

Step 1: Manual Screen Printing
It all starts on the press. Every shirt is screen printed by hand using the traditional manual method, a process that requires precision, timing, and skill. Ink is pulled across the screen with a squeegee, pressed into the fabric with steady hands, and cured to ensure lasting quality. Unlike machine driven production, manual printing gives us control over every detail, from the thickness of the ink to the way it lays on the fabric.

Step 2: Live Printing During MTO
What makes this collection even more special is that the printing happens in real time. During Made to Order LIVE, each order is printed as it comes in. Fans can see the entire process unfold, from the setup to the pull of the screen, the drying, and the final reveal. It is merch as performance, a chance to be part of the craft, not just the outcome.

Step 3: Hand Colored Embellishments
After printing, every garment is taken off the press and finished by hand with bold highlighter embellishments. This is where individuality takes over. The same graphic might be accented with different colors, outlined with a heavier hand, or layered with unexpected combinations. The result is that no two garments are ever alike.

Step 4: Final Curing and Quality Check
Once the embellishments are complete, each piece goes through a final curing process to set the inks and markers into the fabric. The garment is then inspected carefully before being folded, packed, and staged for shipping.

The outcome is not just a shirt, but a piece of art. A blend of craft, care, and creativity that reflects both the spirit of Goose and the ethos of Humbles™.

Made to Order LIVE

Made to Order LIVE is a window into what we do. For three hours, the Humbles™ studio goes live as the presses roll and conversations flow. Fans get to see behind the curtain, watching orders printed, dried, stacked, and finished before shipping.

For the Goose Highlighter Collection, this means fans will be able to witness the process on Sunday, September 28 from 1 to 4 PM EST. Orders are printed in the order they are received and shipped out in waves, first come first serve. Standard items will ship in about 2 to 3 weeks, while Highlighter Editions may take up to 6 weeks because of the hand finishing.

Rock the Pink Charity Tee

This collection also carries a cause close to our hearts. Alongside the Goose Highlighter Collection, we will be printing the Rock the Pink Charity Tee, created in recognition of Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Proceeds from this shirt will go toward supporting the cause, giving fans a chance to stand with Goose and make a difference through their preorder.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long will it take to receive my order?
Because every Goose Highlighter Collection piece is made to order and finished by hand, production takes time. Standard items usually ship within 2 to 3 weeks after the preorder closes. Highlighter Edition pieces, which require additional hand finishing, may take up to 6 weeks. Orders ship in waves on a first come, first serve basis, so ordering early can mean faster delivery.

Can I return or exchange my order?
All sales from the Goose Highlighter Collection are final. Because these garments are printed and finished to order, each one is considered a custom piece and cannot be returned or exchanged. Please double check sizing before you complete your order.

Will my garment look exactly like the product photos?
No. Each Goose Highlighter garment is unique. The product photos are close representations of the designs, but the hand colored embellishments will vary in color and style. This individuality is intentional and what makes every piece one of a kind.

What makes this collection different from standard Goose merch?
Every item in this collection is printed live to order during MTO LIVE and then finished with hand drawn embellishments. The process combines traditional manual screen printing with custom finishing, so no two garments are alike. This is a blend of live performance, craft, and creativity.

What sizes are available?
The Goose Highlighter Collection will be available in standard unisex sizing. Please refer to the size chart before placing your order. Since these are custom preorders, sizing cannot be changed once an order is placed.

Where is this collection being made?
All printing and finishing takes place at the Humbles™ studio. Every order is handled by our team from start to finish, ensuring consistency, care, and quality.
