Hand screen printing Ballad of the Bird Dog apparel in Brenham, Texas

MADE BY HAND IN BRENHAM, TEXAS

Ballad Originals

ONE OF A KIND, BY DESIGN

Every Ballad Original is designed in-house, right here in Brenham — often hand in hand with local artists we know and trust.

That means each design is 100% original. You won't find it anywhere else, on anyone else. When you wear a Ballad tee or hat, you're wearing a piece of art with a story behind it.

ONLY THE GOOD STUFF

We print on heavyweight Comfort Colors® blanks — the kind that feels broken-in from day one and only softens with age. No thin, scratchy throwaways. Just garment-dyed weight that holds its color and earns a permanent spot in your rotation.

HAND SCREEN PRINTED TO LAST

We hand screen print every piece ourselves. It's slower and harder than the cheap way, but it's worth it — the ink sits right, the graphic holds, and your shirt stays sharp for years, not months.

THIS IS OUR WAY

MADE FOR THOSE WHO LIVE IT

BUILT FOR BIRD DOG COUNTRY

Ballad Originals are made for upland hunters, bird dog owners, and anyone who knows the bond between a person and their dog. If you've spent cold mornings in the field, you already get it. This isn't for everyone — and that's exactly the point.

OUR PROMISE

We stand behind everything we make. Every order ships with our satisfaction guarantee. If there's any issue, return it for a full refund.
