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

Your approval was never required. Somewhere along the way, queer and trans people were expected to wait for a relative, a legislature or a stranger on the internet to sign off on their existence, and the people who stopped waiting have a line for it. This shirt is the line, worn by the people who never needed the signature.

Wear it to the Pride march, the family reunion where the vote is still out, the statehouse hearing, and the wedding where the disapproving cousin was not invited. It is a strong gift for a queer friend, a trans friend, and the ally who stopped asking the relatives to come around.

Printed on a Comfort Colors 1717 in garment-dyed 6.1 oz ring-spun cotton, soft, evenly colored, and heavy enough to keep for every Pride you attend. Direct-to-garment. Ink in the cotton, not on top.

Relaxed, unisex, true to size. S to 4XL. Colors: Black, White, Bay, Blossom. Plus Chambray, Graphite, Ivory, Banana. Also as a hoodie and a sweatshirt. It belongs to our LGBTQ rights and Pride page, with the rest of the Pride designs.

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.

Machine wash cold, inside out. Tumble dry low or hang dry. Do not iron the print. More on the fabric and care page.
