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

Stop breaking our wheelchairs. Every year airlines load thousands of them into the hold and hand back something bent, cracked or missing a part, and the traveler in the tee lost a week of independence at the gate waiting on a repair budget. A wheelchair is not luggage. This tee is done being reasonable about it.

Wear it through the airport, to the Department of Transportation hearing, the disability travel conference, the airline's customer service counter, and the family dinner where a relative says just fly less. It is a strong gift for a wheelchair traveler, a disability rights lawyer, a travel companion, and the friend who filed the damage report.

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 at chair height across a gate. 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 cargo hold 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.

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.
