about us

Wear art. Wear Matoko. Matoko is a small, minority-owned, direct-to-film (DTF) printing business created by founders, Matt and Kyoko (hence, Matoko), to reinforce that real art is irreplicable and irreplaceable by any machine or program. From pre-design to print, our process is and always will be human, handmade, and heartfelt.
So, whether you’re an artist, an art appreciator, or somewhere in between, Matoko is here to fulfill all of your DTF needs! Our transfers reflect what we love. Whether it’s trending or timeless, if a design speaks true to you, it speaks true to us. Wear Matoko and let what you wear speak to who we are: high quality, handmade, fairly priced, and eternally expressive.
We are currently building towards offering made-to-order apparel, but in the meantime, our transfers are BYOB (that’s Bring Your Own Blanks ;)). You bring the fabric and we’ll supply the style.

Hi there!
We are Matt & Kyoko and we are proudly Filipino, fashion-forward, and creative in our own rights (just don't ask Matt to draw your design). Matoko was founded as a way to bring together our mutual strengths to create a brand and a community worth working for. This company is truly a product of love and we sincerely hope our shop represents that through everything we do. In our free time (aka Sundays when the shop is closed), we like to travel to new places, hike, and try to find the best matcha on Earth! We hope you've learned something about us and that we can learn from you because we recognize our customers see more than just a supplier, but real people. Choose authenticity. Choose Matoko.
Love,
Matt & Kyoko // Matoko
