Embroidered summer T-shirts : 100% sustainable. RESIST & PERSIST
This is a lightweight high-quality summer T-shirt; brand new overstock that has been saved from landfill and transformed with beautiful embroidery by Bow Sewing Centre in East London.
Each piece is unique, rescued from overstock and given new life with empowering slogans. Made with London Living Wage workers. Limited edition – only 12 are available in each design.
The story behind the 'Resist & Persist' design is that "Resist” signals refusal to accept the status quo – from sweatshop labour and environmental damage to everyday sexism. It aligns with Birdsong’s commitment to fair wages and local, ethical production. “Persist” reflects continuing the struggle even when the industry, funding cuts, or social pressures make it hard.
Resist the fast fashion system that harms people and the planet.
Persist in building a world where clothes are made with care, worn with intention and valued for years, not seasons.
