We Rise - Pride Tee [Click for Color Options]
from $12.10
THE FILM: The award-wining film "We Rise", which follows the lives of five extraordinary students involved in a high school mock trial competition, is Atta Squirrel's first feature film, as well as their first documentary.
DESIGN: Inspired by his buddy Zoraida "Zee" Baculi's declaration that "Wednesday is 'Gay Day'", at Jonathan's day job, the Pride Folk and Allies on his team don their Gilbert Baker accoutrements each hump day, in celebration and solidarity. For years, Jonathan only had rainbow socks. Now a squirrel's got that drip.
T-SHIRT: One of the Atta Squirrels is preternaturally particular about his t-shirts. They're like... sommelier-level annoying about it. So, like those of us who will avoid our "prepper" uncle up until hour one of the zombie apocalypse, we let That Squirrel decide on the t-shirt. And they did not disappoint. It's soft and lightweight, with just the right amount of stretch; comfortable and flattering for all and sundry. Here's the deets:
Unisex Staple T-Shirt | Bella + Canvas 3001
• 100% combed and ring-spun cotton (Heather colors contain polyester)
• Fabric weight: 4.2 oz./yd.² (142 g/m²)
• Pre-shrunk fabric
• Side-seamed construction
• Shoulder-to-shoulder taping
• Blank product sourced from Nicaragua, Mexico, Honduras, or the US
Two truths:
1. Fast fashion is offensive
2. Fun t-shirts are pretty much the unadulterated best
With your help, we can square this circle.
OUR PART: This tee is well-made, and printed especially for you, as soon as you place an order (which is why it takes a bit longer to deliver to you). Making products on demand instead of in bulk helps reduce overproduction, so thank you for making thoughtful purchasing decisions :)
YOUR PART: Support The T-Shirt Circle Of Life. Stages may vary, dependent upon one's situation, but we suggest at least three stages for your tee:
Stage 1: Your Shirt, or A Gift (i.e., Their Shirt)
Stage 2: A Smaller Human's Night Shirt, or Your Ex's Shirt, at the precise moment they become Your Ex. Or (dependent upon the relative size of Your Ex): both
Stage 3: Someone's Thrift Store Come-Up, or (depending how raggedy it is by Stage 3): A Literal Rag
If you’re not a t-shirt person, and are just purchasing this t-shirt to support Atta Squirrel: Stop that. (And also: bless you.) (But also stop that.)
Consider reaching out to us on the "Contact Us" page, instead. We have ways of turning your well-intentioned, ill-fated t-shirt money into artsy stuff, if you're wanting to throw said t-shirt money our way, as well as money-free ways to contribute, via likes and reviews and such :)
