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

Protect the dolls. Trans women deserve safety, joy and community, full stop, and the drag house mother in the tee has walked six of her girls home from the club on nights that felt wrong and means every word of the affectionate, trans-affirming phrase. Wearing it is a small public promise to show up. This tee is the promise, warm and celebratory.

Wear it to Pride, the drag show, the rally, the march, and the ordinary day when a trans friend needs to see it on someone. It is a warm gift for a drag house mother, a trans woman, a nightlife ally, and the friend who walks people home. It reads as care first and politics second, which is the order she means it in.

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 words that read across a drag show front row. 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 walks-people-home entry on our LGBTQ rights and pride page.
