We print with a process that dyes the actual fabric fiber, unlike companies that lay inks on top of the shirt like a plastic coating. Our printing process produces an image that has incredible detail and gives our shirts their soft feel. The Mountain uses only water-based inks, which are environmentally friendly and we go out of our way to insure that all of our manufacturing processes fully protect our air and water.

We also believe that caring for families extends beyond our company itself and into a larger community. We support a number of national and community service organizations that provide the critical safety net so many families need. Our support also extends to Fire Departments, Native American initiatives, land protection organizations, schools, and many dog and wolf rescue organizations. The Mountain also supports a neighboring retreat that cares for the mentally ill. Just last year we began contributing to a traumatic brain injury rehabilitation center, one of just 3 in the country.

In 2005, The Mountain added a selection of printed solid color shirts to their offerings, as well as a small line of two-sided prints and shirts with pockets. They also recently (2003?) added a line of girls' tops, which was expanded in 2005 to include women's tops. (Their web site, however, is still showing their 2004 catalog only, as of this writing, and none of the new stuff.)
