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

Workers keep it running. The lights stay on, the shelves stay stocked, the trucks keep moving, and none of it happens without workers, and the night-shift stocker in the tee has restocked the same aisle every night for nine years while the company's ads thank the customers. This tee states the obvious thing that somehow needs stating.

Wear it to the union hall, the Labor Day parade, the shareholder meeting protest, the night shift break room, and the family dinner where a relative says the company built all this. It is a strong gift for a night-shift stocker, a truck driver, a lineman, and the friend who noticed who was in the ad.

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 night shift break 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 nine-years-one-aisle 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.

Common questions

Is this the same as we keep the lights on? Cousins. That one is the utility crew; this one is every worker, shelves and trucks included.

Would a warehouse local order these for the parade? Locals do. Every shirt is printed to order. Any mix of sizes, one order.

Which color do workers pick? Black and Graphite. White for the parade.

How does the 1717 fit? True to size, relaxed body. Order your usual.

Wear it to: the picket line, the rent strike, the grocery store, the shareholder meeting you were not invited to.

Fabric and fit

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.
