You Had Me At Vegan: t-shirts and tanks!

It’s as simple as that, right?

For those of us that have been eating vegan and plant-based for years, we are finally seeing a shift.

Shift in thinking. Shift in consciousness. Shift in acceptance of eating plants.

Yes, we have quite a long way to go. But I have never seen and heard the word vegan more than I have in this past month.

It seems all at once big brands are advertising their oldies as – not just vegan – but “always have been”! Wow.

(In other words, we were always hip to this vegan thing. No you weren’t, but I do love the big splash of vegan on a cereal box!)

Then, on the radio, I’m hearing ads for food deliveries and new restaurants promoting “we offer vegan“… and another radio interview where the host actually said “we are moving away from meat-based diets towards plant-based diets”.

No, he wasn’t vegan. It’s a mere matter of awareness changing.

Far cry from interviews I did 10 – 15 years ago. I was always put on the defensive about our diet with questions like… Aren’t you concerned about calcium? Your children drink milk though, right? Do your children feel ostricized?

Oy.

Those were gruelling years as a vegan. But now…

Now, we are in the era to wear our vegan choices loud and proud!

I’ve – and of course, for hummus. 😍

The you had me at vegan idea just came to me, and I ran with it. And another similar idea… (read on)!

How are these different from my other t-shirt designs? Well, these are:

• printed locally
• made with bamboo and organic cotton! (SO soft)
• – this means you don’t have to order via a 3rd party shop like zazzle
• tanks are for women
• tees unisex

I did a number of polls on these designs, and these colors and choices came out on top. I love them myself!

Guys, I make little moolah on these shirts. This is something I want to share with you. So, I printed a small quantity for a test run to see what sizes/styles sell well.

I cropped the images so you see just the torso. I greatly dislike the perfected look of the models that the printer used for samples. Turns me off, and I suspect it turns off others as well.

I’ve been wearing my and love it so. I’ll wear it in my next yoga vid for you too!

What do you think of these new styles? I hope you wear them proudly! 💚 x Dreena

p.s. I also have “you had me at avocado”… if I get enough demand I’ll print those too!
