Without Us You Starve Bee Butterfly Tee
Putting the "funeral" in functional adulthood. 💐📜💀
Classic Unisex Fit & High Neck: Features a slightly boxier silhouette paired with a sturdy, top-stitched collar that sits higher for a clean, premium look that won't stretch out.
Sizing Tip: Fits true to size for a standard classic fit. Size up if you prefer a looser, street-style look. To ensure the perfect fit, measure a favorite tee flat and compare it to the size chart below.
Note: The fabric is pre-washed so it won't shrink after the first wash. Measurements are approximate and may vary slightly. If you’re between sizes, we recommend sizing up for comfort. All values are a guide — compare them with a similar item you already own. Get in touch if you have questions!
100% Ring-Spun Cotton: Premium Comfort Colors® 1717 Unisex tee made with a heavyweight 6.1 oz fabric that is thick, durable, and gets softer and more comfortable with every single wash.
Premium Garment-Dyed Color: Vintage dying process to give it a rich, uniquely lived-in vintage color tone right out of the box.
Pre-Shrunk for Longevity: Fabric is pre-shrunk before it gets to you, ensuring a consistent, dependable fit that won't warp or shrink up over time.
Ethical Manufacturing: The blank garments I source are made with a Platinum WRAP-certified manufacturing partner. This independent, third-party certification ensures a safe, fair, and humane working environment for the people crafting the clothing.
Made-to-Order: Items are only printed after you buy them. This keeps things mindful and sustainable by eliminating excess inventory and unnecessary retail waste.
Soft ink prints, not vinyl: DTG (direct-to-garment) the eco-friendly water-based ink is embedded directly into the cotton fibers of the garment, leaving a soft-to-the-touch feel over the printed area. You can initially feel the print much like a screen print upon arrival, then it becomes almost non-existent and part of the garment after a handful of washes—never like a stiff, heavy layer of plastic or vinyl sitting on top.
Every piece is printed-to-order just for you! This model eliminates excess retail waste and ensures your gear is made with purpose.

To keep apparel looking great for as long as possible, please follow these easy care steps:
- Washing: Wash inside out on a gentle cycle with cold water and gentle detergents.
- Drying: Tumble dry with no heat or on a low temperature setting (hanging dry is also fantastic for extended wear).
- What to Avoid: Do NOT use bleach or OxiClean, and please do not iron directly over the printed graphics.
I think wearing clothing that starts conversations is essential to change, but I also believe that it's necessary to assist tangible progress.
To support real-world action, 15% of all proceeds from every single item sold is donated directly to grassroots organizations and frontline mutual aid networks. I bundle these funds and donate them monthly to different groups doing immediate, direct-impact work—focusing heavily on reproductive freedom, LGBTQ+ defense, healthcare access, and community safety. Your purchase helps spark a conversation and directly funds the people doing the work on the ground.
