Unisex fit, true to size, S to 5XL (Sand to 3XL). Heavyweight fleece crewneck.

Queer since forever. Ask a queer elder about the bars, the code words and the friends who never got an obituary with the truth in it, and the idea that any of this is new stops making sense. This sweatshirt is a quieter way to make the same argument, one iris in a laurel with three words that close the subject.

People shopping for a gay pride gift for an older relative or a longtime couple often want something wearable rather than loud. It suits a queer seniors' coffee hour, an anniversary dinner for a couple who were together long before they could marry, and a lazy weekend at home.

Here the design goes on a Gildan Heavy Blend crewneck sweatshirt, 8 oz of 50/50 cotton and polyester, with a ribbed collar, cuffs and hem around a seamless body. The print is direct to garment and into the fibers, so it holds up in the wash and stays soft.

Sizing runs unisex, relaxed and true to size from S to 5XL, with Sand offered through 3XL; two sizes up gives a roomier fit. Pick from Sand, Sport Grey or White. Also as a tee and a hoodie. There is more on queer history and today's fights on our LGBTQ rights and Pride 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

Is this a good gift for an older gay couple? Yes. It is a favorite for anniversaries, especially for couples who have been together for decades.

Is the sweatshirt good for layering? It is midweight, so it layers under a coat in winter and works alone in spring.

Does the message include trans and bi people? Yes. Queer here means the whole community, not one letter of it.

Could a queer seniors group order a set? Yes. A single order can include every size and color the group needs.

Wear it to: the parade, the school board meeting, the family dinner, every day of June.
