Ban T-shirts review & giveaway
~ CLOSED ~
If you are like me, you stand up for what you believe in. I am guilty of “wearing my heart on my sleeve” so to speak. If I feel strongly about something I let others know about it and am not afraid to share my opinion either. Sometimes my hubby gets tired of hearing about my opinions. hehee. I don’t see any point in hiding my feelings. And I certainly don’t “ride the fence” on anything either. I do have common courtesy and am not obnoxious but as the saying goes “If you don’t stand for something, you’ll fall for everything”. That is SO true!
Ban T-Shirts offers dozens of thought-provoking designs in an array of colors. Their designs are meant to make a statement and let your message be heard. There are plenty of progressive messages and images to choose from too. If you feel strongly about the environment, politics, and or spiritual views, Ban T-Shirts will have you covered! All of their shirts will certainly make you sit and think because not all of them are funny. Some are sad. But I am sure there is something for everyone.
One thing you will love is the fact that all of Ban T-shirts tees and sweatshirts are made in the US, not in sweatshops. You can also purchase messenger bags as well. And their new designs are 100% organic cotton. Another plus, is that for every t-shirt sold, Ban T-Shirts makes a donation that covers the cost of planting a tree to Trees For The Future. Now THAT is a caring company that stands for something great!
Duncan Carson, of Ban T-Shirts sent me the Butterfly Effect woman’s tee. Duncan is the brain-child of Ban T-Shirts. My shirt, the Butterfly Effect means “If we extrapolate we can conclude that our own efforts, although they sometimes seem futile, can in fact have important and possibly magnificent consequences for the Earth and those around us.” Hence, “beat your wings, change the world”.
I love the vibrant blue color and the butterflies make this shirt very feminine yet it still speaks volumes. It is very comfortable to wear. They do seem to run a bit small so if you order, you may want to order the next size up. The screen print is great quality. The print is evenly covered and not see-through. I love that. I’ve purchased t-shirts in the past that have been so very poor in print quality that it peels off after washing. Not with Ban T-Shirts. They use some great stuff. These will last a long time.
Prices vary and shipping is just $5 per order no matter how many shirts you order.
You’ve got to check out Ban T-Shirts. Go show your support, for them and your beliefs and help plant some trees in the process!
