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

My body is not a before picture. There is no after coming, no version of this that finally counts, and treating a disabled body as a rough cut waiting on a fix quietly tells the person inside it that they do not count yet either. The person in the tee is the whole photo. This tee says the story is not a transformation.

Wear it to the disability pride parade, the clinic where the cure conversation starts, the gym, the family reunion, and the dinner where a relative sends another article about a treatment. It is a strong gift for a disabled adult, a chronic illness friend, a therapist who gets it, and the person who stopped waiting for the after.

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 clinic waiting room. 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 whole photo 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.

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.
