FAQ

Clothing is the ultimate mobile canvas. For me, how we dress is a profound way to express who we are and what we stand for. It’s a huge part of my life and how I navigate the world.
Creating and wearing political resistance pieces is the most free, unfiltered way to share what matters. These aren’t just shirts they are wearable statements, stories, and conversation starters built around the things I care deeply about.
When you wear your values, you take your voice with you everywhere.

I don’t believe in mass production, over-consumption, or sitting on piles of dead stock.
So every month I offer a small batch release of pre orders of all my T-shirts. Everything is pre-ordered in small, intentional runs.
By closing order windows and pressing only what is wanted, we keep waste to an absolute minimum and make sure every single piece has a dedicated home.

Let’s be real, manufacturing clothes has an environmental footprint, and perfection doesn't exist. My goal is to minimize that impact as much as possible.
I use premium, ethical blank tees sourced from Mindful Merch a female-led company designed on the Sunshine Coast that is genuinely guided by accountability, transparency, and respect for the people who make the garments.
Rather than mass-producing trend-driven apparel, Mindful merch take a considered approach to how the garments are made. From design and material selection through to production, they priorities durability, transparency, and relationships over scale.
What sets Mindful Merch apart is the direct involvement in production. They operate their own small production units in Bangladesh and Vietnam, built in partnership with local families and teams. This hands-on model allows them to maintain oversight of working conditions, pay fair and transparent wages, and make decisions with real people in mind.

Good things take time, care, and fair pay. Because I use high-grade ethical small batch blanks, hand-design, and hand-press each piece myself to order in small runs, the price reflects true value.
It ensures that everyone involved in making the garment is respected, the land footprint is considered, and I can keep creating sustainably on my own terms.

Let’s be honest about the system we're living under, the impacts of Colonisation and socio-economic inequality mean that ethical, small-batch pricing is simply out of reach for a lot of people and as a proud Aboriginal woman, I am deeply aware of that.
I hate the guilt and shame that often get attached to sustainability and affordability. Art, expression, and feeling represented shouldn’t be a luxury reserved only for those with disposable income.
That’s why I’ve set up a Pay-It-Forward / Community Share option.
If you have the financial means, you can contribute a little extra at checkout to help cover or subsidize a shirt. It’s a collective way to share the load and make PoliTEEical pieces genuinely accessible for Mob and community members who want to wear their values too.

A little transparency.
No matter how many conscious choices I make, what I create still has a footprint.
I'm making clothing in a world that already has more than enough of it, and choosing a more ethically considered tee doesn't erase the environmental and social impacts of that.
I'm aware of the contradiction.
But I'm also an artist, and clothing has always been a powerful form of expression for me. A way to share stories, challenge ideas, take up space and carry conversations further.
So I'm trying to honour both truths.
By choosing suppliers whose practices align more closely with my values, creating in small batches and being intentional about what I put into the world, while acknowledging that conscious doesn't mean consequence-free.
I'm not claiming perfection, and I'm certainly not here to shame anyone for what they can or can't afford.
I'm simply trying to create in a way that feels considered, accountable and true to what I believe in.
Because I believe there's room to care deeply about our impact while still recognising the importance of art, storytelling and expression.
