The origin

A name born from science fiction,
a product born from conscience.

Replica takes its name from the world of Isaac Asimov — a universe where identity, creation, and the meaning of life are endlessly examined. It is not a coincidence. The brand was born from an artist who asks the same questions through fabric.

Founded in 2004, Replica was the brainchild of Greek graphic designer Kostas Vasiliagos, driven by his personal convictions: a commitment to organic cotton rooted in environmental awareness and the belief that what we wear should not cost the earth its future.

"The measure of a civilization is how it treats its weakest members — and its environment." — Isaac Asimov

Every garment

100%

Est. 2004

Quality you can feel.
Values you can wear.

Every t-shirt is printed using silkscreen with water-based inks — a technique that produces an extraordinarily soft hand feel that does not crack, peel, or fade. A print that lasts as long as the fabric itself.

For Replica, only organic cotton. For Yuki, premium quality without compromise. The same hands, the same care, the same Greece.

What we stand for

Three principles.
No compromises.

Organic by conviction

Since 2004, Replica t-shirts have been crafted from organic cotton. No toxic pesticides, no synthetic fertilizers — just cotton as it should be. A choice made for the soil, the farmer, and the person wearing it.

Designed by hand

Every design is conceived and drawn by Kostas. No stock imagery, no outsourced graphics — each print is an original work of art that carries a point of view, a question, or a small rebellion.

Made in Greece

From cotton to finished garment, everything happens in Greece. Supporting local production is not a marketing line — it is the only way we know how to guarantee quality and look our supply chain in the eye.

What we design about

The world through
our eyes.

A love for animals

Animals are a recurring presence in our designs — not as decoration, but as messengers. Their inclusion helps communicate deeper meaning: the bond between humans and the living world, and the beauty of what we risk losing.

Social & environmental conscience

Many designs carry a social or environmental message — questions about how we live, what we consume, and what kind of world we are building. Wearing a t-shirt can be a quiet act of solidarity.

Nature & the outdoors

Rock climbing, mountain biking, surfing, hiking — activities where the body meets the natural world directly. These themes celebrate the freedom and connection that comes from being outside.

Brand one

Replica

For the restless. For those who find meaning in nature, movement, and ideas that challenge the ordinary. Since 2004, Replica designs have explored themes of social conscience, ecology, and the outdoors. Animals are a recurring presence, not as decoration but as messengers. Printed on organic cotton with water-based inks using silkscreen, producing an extraordinarily soft hand feel that lasts for years.

Y

Brand two

Yuki

Younger, quieter, lighter. Yuki is the minimalist sibling — designs that breathe, graphics that leave space. Animals appear here too, rendered with a lighter touch, carrying the same warmth and meaning. The same silkscreen craftsmanship, the same water-based inks, the same obsessive softness. Different vocabulary, same commitment to quality.

The process

How a t-shirt becomes something worth keeping.

We do not believe in disposable fashion. Every step of our process is chosen to produce a garment that ages well — in quality, in meaning, and in how it feels against your skin ten years from now.

01

Design

Each print begins as a drawing by Kostas — conceptual, intentional, never accidental. The design process can take weeks before ink touches fabric.

02

Organic cotton sourcing

For Replica, we use only GOTS-certified organic cotton. Grown without synthetic pesticides. Softer on skin. Kinder to the planet.

03

Silkscreen printing

Water-based inks, applied by silkscreen. The result is a print that does not crack, does not peel, and does not feel like plastic — just colour that breathes with the fabric.

04

Made in Greece

From cutting to finishing, every garment is produced in Greece. We know the people who make them. That matters to us.

K

From the designer

"I started Replica because I wanted to wear something I actually believed in — and I couldn't find it anywhere else."

Kostas is an artist, a designer, and the sole creative force behind both Replica and Yuki. Every t-shirt in the collection is his original work — conceived, drawn, and refined until it says exactly what he intends it to say. The brands grew from a personal need: to create apparel that respects the body wearing it, the hands making it, and the world it exists in.
