My Visit To The INKnBURN Warehouse

The little one didn't have school today so my normal schedule of running and working out in the morning was not going to happen. The hubby decided that we should all go to ChickFilA for breakfast this morning so that's what we did. First off, I LOVE ChickFilA. I've always had great customer experience there and yummy food. Plus, being from the South, this is one of the very FEW places to get sweet tea here on the West Coast. After breakfast we hit up a park before it got too warm and then headed over to INKnBURN.

I've only been to their place once and that was for the wonderful sale they had last month. I got some really great deals then on retired, sample and "damaged" items. The sale was outside so I never saw the in side of the warehouse. In side there is an area where they have samples of all their Spring and Run or Die Collection for you try on. Their stuff is so soft and colorful that it makes it hard to not buy everything!! The staff was amazing, especially with my son. My son fell in love with Indi Avila. She talked to him and even got him to sit still for 10 minutes while he drew pictures with her. He promised her that he would work on drawing her a monkey and send it to her. I ended up getting (from left to right): Wish Camisole, Atalanta Singlet, Atalanta Tech Shirt, Atalanta Yoga Shorts and Black Denim Tights.

After trying everything on and picking out my new items, Indi gave us a tour of where the magic happens. Like I mentioned in another post, INKnBURN is made in the USA at their warehouse in Southern California. They start with all white performance fabric and then cut each panel to make up the clothing item. They use a special kind of paper with a unique kind of ink to print onto the clothing. They then use pressure and extremely high temperatures to turn the ink into gas which allows it to bond to the fabric. This technique allows the fabric to still breath, not blocking the holes in the performance fabric like other screen printed items from other companies. This technique also allows for the clothing to have long-term durability. Once this is completed the next step is to hand sew the panels together. There are no scratchy tags on any of their clothing. Some of the softest threads are used on their clothing to deliver maximum comfort. You can place your order on line and have it delivered to your place or if you live close to the warehouse, you can opt to come pick it up. Or you can do what I did and make an appointment time to come by and see everything in person, try on the samples and then try not to max out the credit card because you want one of everything. Once you don that first item of clothing you will immediately feel the top quality that is INKnBURN and become addicted. You will want to leave the warehouse wearing your first purchase so that you can head back home and instantly begin your workout or hit the running path. They are that impressive.
