Unisex with a relaxed cut, true to size, S to 4XL. Garment-dyed heavyweight tee.

Access is a right not a favor. Ramps, captions and accommodations are not special treatment, and the deaf student in the tee was thanked for her patience by a professor while the captions were arranged as if she had asked for a favor and not for the thing the law already required. This tee makes the point in six words: accessibility is the baseline.

Wear it to the disability services office, the accessibility hearing, the lecture hall with the captions, the disability pride march, and the family dinner where a relative says the school is being so accommodating. It is a strong gift for a deaf student, an interpreter, a disability services coordinator, and the friend who stopped saying thank you for your patience.

The tee is a Comfort Colors 1717, garment-dyed in 6.1 oz ring-spun cotton, soft and evenly colored, with a heavier hand than a novelty tee and three lines that read across a lecture hall with the captions on. Direct-to-garment. It bonds with the cotton.

Unisex, relaxed, true to size. S through 4XL. Colors: Black, White, Bay, Blossom. Also Chambray, Graphite, Ivory, Banana. It is the thanked-for-patience entry on our disability rights page.

Designed and printed to order in the USA. Machine wash cold, inside out, with like colors. Tumble dry low. Do not bleach or iron the design.

Common questions

How does this relate to accommodations are not favors? Cousins, almost twins. That one is the workplace; this one is the lecture hall, and the same wrong word.

Would a disability services office order these for the students? Offices do. Every shirt is printed to order. Any mix of sizes, one order.

Which color do people pick? Bay and Black. Blossom for the march.

How does the 1717 fit? True to size, relaxed body. Order your usual.

Wear it to: the hearing, the clinic, Disability Pride Month in July, the parking lot where someone took your spot.

Fabric and fit

Comfort Colors 1717: 6.1 oz 100 percent ring-spun cotton, garment-dyed and soft-washed so it feels broken in from the first wear. Relaxed unisex fit, true to size, S to 4XL in eight colors. Double-needle stitching, no side seams, sewn-in label.

Measurements for every size are on the size and fit guide.

Printing and care

Printed to order in the USA, direct to garment: water-based ink goes into the fabric rather than sitting on top, so the print stays soft and does not crack or peel.

Machine wash cold, inside out. Tumble dry low or hang dry. Do not iron the print. More on the fabric and care page.
