🖤 INTRWVD Is Shutting Down — A Final Farewell

After years of bringing minimalist, deeply personal, and anime-inspired fashion to the forefront, INTRWVD has announced it will be closing its doors at the end of this month.

“I didn’t want to come back in this way,” the founder shared. “But some things don’t go the way we want them to.” - INTRWVD Owner

The decision to close comes from a deeply real place — burnout, limited resources, and the emotional toll of running a small creative business solo. Like many independent designers, the founder poured heart, time, and vision into every drop — but has now reached a point where continuing is no longer sustainable.

This isn’t just a shutdown — it’s a love letter to everyone who ever bought a piece, reshared a drop, or felt seen by INTRWVD’s storytelling.

🖤 Everything on the site is now 50% off or more
🛒 Final sale until the end of the month
📦 Wholesale offers available — DM or email

If you’ve ever wanted to support a small anime brand with soul — now’s the time to grab a piece of history before it’s gone.
