6.5oz - Dant "Blue Footed Booby" T-Shirt - Ecru

So…where to begin. Ever had an idea that just hangs around in the back of your mind for weeks, months - even years? For us, it started at the beginning of the pandemic, when our little shop crew spent hours walking the city (there wasn’t much else to do). Right then, the bird migrations were in full swing. We downloaded an app, started tracking sightings, and before long, we were hooked. We’re bird people now.

Somewhere in the middle of it all, I got this idea: a series of birds with our logo beneath them. Nothing groundbreaking - just something fun. I was tired of feeling boxed into the heritage world, where a simple joy like putting a goofy bird on a t-shirt felt out of bounds. Around the same time, we were deep in the store’s rebrand, and I knew I wanted to leave space for projects exactly like this.

Five years (and countless mental sketches) later, that little vision finally took flight. You’ve been asking for branded merch ever since we stopped printing it half a decade ago, and we couldn’t be happier to bring it back - this time in a way that mixes our new branding with a flock of happy birds we could only dream of before.

This first design features the Blue-footed Booby. We’ve never seen one in person, though it’s high on our list. With its silly name, colors, and spirit, it captures the exact kind of lightheartedness we wanted in this series. One day, we’ll make it to the Galápagos to spot one for ourselves - until then, we’ll happily settle for this cotton version.

Fit Notes:

Tommy is wearing a size Large in the photos. The shirt is cut with a purposefully boxy, modern fit. He could easily size down to a Medium for a more traditional look. In your true size, you still get that classic boxiness - just a little less roomy, and a cleaner match if you prefer tailored pants. For that reason, we recommend sticking with your true size unless you like the oversized look shown here. Tommy is 5'10," 160lbs with a 40" chest.
