Dear \u201cToo Expensive\u201d People<\/h2>

We get it. You saw the price of a hoodie and nearly spilled your \u00a35 caramel latte<\/em>, the one that disappears in 20 minutes<\/em>, both physically and emotionally. \u2615<\/p>

But here\u2019s the thing: good quality, hilarious material that also happens to care about the planet isn\u2019t cheap<\/strong>.<\/p>

We don\u2019t print on mystery-fabric stitched by invisible elves. We use sustainable materials, ethical production, and humour that\u2019s legally funnier than most corporate \u201cbanter\u201d tees.<\/p>

The Cost of Caring (and Laughing)<\/h3>

You\u2019ll happily pay \u00a340 a month for a gym subscription you haven't visited since 2021.<\/em>
Or spend \u00a37 on a cocktail that tastes like regret and melted Haribo.
But when a small UK project dares to charge fairly<\/em> for something built to last ,suddenly, it\u2019s \u201cdaylight robbery.\u201d<\/em><\/p>

Here\u2019s the absurd truth: the world is on fire, and we\u2019re just trying to sell you a responsibly made laugh.<\/strong><\/p>

With All Due Respect\u2026 We\u2019re Not Primark<\/h3>

And thank God for that.<\/p>

Primark gives you a T-shirt. We give you an identity crisis wrapped in organic cotton.<\/em><\/p>

So next time someone says, \u201cThat\u2019s a bit pricey,\u201d just smile and sip your latte.<\/em><\/p>

Because somewhere, a hoodie is out there thinking, \u201cAt least I\u2019m sustainable.\u201d<\/em><\/p>
