About Us

At Speak Out Shirts, we believe in the power of a message. Our mission is simple: to create bold, meaningful apparel that sparks conversation, raises awareness, and celebrates individuality. From advocating for social justice to paying homage to cult classic movies and iconic music, our designs reflect a diverse mix of causes, humor, and creativity.

With over 30 years of experience as a graphic designer, I started designing and selling t-shirts as a form of therapy after George W. Bush was elected president. Ironically, today George W. feels like a teddy bear compared to what we’re dealing with. After years of sharing my work through big print-on-demand t-shirt companies that take most of the profits while paying artists next to nothing, I decided it was time to venture out on my own. Speak Out Shirts is my way of creating a space for like-minded people to find designs that inspire, challenge, and connect.

Born from a passion for self-expression, Speak Out Shirts is more than just a clothing brand—it’s where art meets activism, and style meets substance. Whether you're championing LGBTQ+ rights, fighting for reproductive freedom, or rocking your favorite movie or music quote, our shirts are here to amplify your voice—loud and clear.

MAGAts, false Christians, bigots, and homophobes need not apply. Hate messages will not be tolerated, and hateful asshats risk being mocked mercilessly, "I wave my genitals in your general direction! Now, go away or I shall taunt you a second time" - Thank you Monty Python.

Reasonable requests and ideas, however, are always welcome.

So, whether you’re making a statement, finding a tee that speaks to your soul, or just looking for a good laugh, we’re honored to be part of your journey. At Speak Out Shirts, we’re here to help you stand up, stand out, and speak up—one shirt at a time.
