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

We voted to strike. It is the least casual vote a workplace ever takes: rent math, childcare math, a hard talk at the kitchen table, then a room full of people who ran all of that separately and raised their hands anyway, and the union member in the tee did her arithmetic on the back of a pay stub. An authorization vote is a promise made to each other. This tee is that promise.

Wear it to the picket line, the strike vote count, the union hall, the solidarity rally, and the family dinner where a relative says you should be grateful to have the job. It is a strong gift for a union member, a shop steward, a strike captain, and the friend who raised her hand.

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 four words that read across a picket line. 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 raised-hand entry in the union and labor collection.

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.
