PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:

This design carries a powerful message: Indigenous identity is not defined by skin tone. Embracing diversity in shapes, sizes, and colors, it's a tribute to all Indigenous people, whether they're reconnecting with their roots or have always been closely tied to their heritage. It's especially meaningful for those who've had to defend their indigeneity against narrow perceptions of appearance.

This design is a call to never cease learning your language, dancing your dances, fostering connections, and nurturing your community, even in the face of indifference. It's a reminder that perseverance in these acts is a defiance against the erasure of Indigenous cultures.

SIZE GUIDE

ALL PRODUCTS ARE UNISEX FIT UNLESS OTHERWISE STATED IN THE TITLE OR DESCRIPTION.

Unisex Fit:
True to size for men; adjust sizing as needed.

Hats & Toques:
One size fits most.

Measurements taken in inches. Customers between sizes, should size down for a slimmer fit or size up for a relaxed fit. If in doubt, just go a size larger, better to fit a bit loose, than to not fit at all.

(fig.1)

Step 1: Measure Key Areas (Refer to Fig. 1)

Chest/Bust: Measure around the widest part.
Waist: Measure at your natural waist where regular-rise pants sit.
Hips: Measure around the fullest part of your hips.

Step 2: Calculate and Compare

Take your largest measurement and divide it by 2.
Example: If your chest measures 42", divide by 2 to get 21".
Compare this number (21") to the width column in the size chart.
- Snug Fit: Choose the closest size to your measurement.
- Natural/Loose Fit: Choose a size slightly larger.
  Example: For a 21" measurement, a t-shirt in size L-XL would be a good fit.
