Wretched Wear: Skludger Monster Jacket

Lurking in the shadows of sewers and drains, the elusive Skludger has emerged—this time on the back of a hand-painted, hand-stitched denim jacket. Mischievous but harmless, these little soap-loving creatures leave behind telltale pink trails and tiny pockmarks—mistaken for mould by the untrained eye. But now, one has found a new home, stretching its inky tentacles across this short-fit, second-hand denim jacket, making it a true wearable piece of art.
This one-of-a-kind jacket has been entirely hand-painted, with intricate detailing that took hours to perfect. The bubbles shimmer with both painted and hand-stitched acrylic beads, adding a textured, eerie glow. To bring this little monster to life, thick sewn cotton thread forms its delicate antennae, creating a tactile, almost living effect.
Each stitch, each brushstroke was done by hand—not printed, not mass-produced. This is slow fashion at its finest, merging sustainability with creepy-cute, punk rock energy.
