Shipping prices for international orders depend on which products you choose and the shipping location: this is calculated at checkout.
International orders may be subject to import duties, taxes, and customs fees assessed by your country's customs authority upon delivery. These are separate from your shipping cost, collected by the carrier, and paid by the recipient.
Rates vary significantly by country, so we can't predict the amount in advance. We recommend checking your country's customs or postal service website before placing your order.
A quick note for our international customers: if an order is returned to us because duties weren't paid, delivery attempts were missed, or customs inquiries went unanswered, we're unable to reship at no cost. We're happy to either reship with a new shipping charge or refund the product cost (minus original shipping and any carrier return fees).

Thoughtfully made.
Our t-shirts are crafted from GOTS, OCS, and GRS-certified fabric, meeting OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certification and PETA-Approved Vegan standards. Each shirt is made-to-order and shipped directly from our garment partner, reducing unnecessary shipments and production waste.
The story behind the design.
This unique interpretation was inspired by long-time Holstee member Shawn Ward, an award-winning poet who found renewed creativity through blackout poetry—a technique popularized by Austin Kleon that transforms existing text into new poetic messages by selectively obscuring words. Through this artistic approach, our manifesto takes on new life, revealing hidden meanings while maintaining its core message of mindful living.
Whether you're a poetry enthusiast, a longtime fan of the Holstee Manifesto, or someone drawn to meaningful design, this shirt offers a fresh perspective on our philosophy while reminding us of the creative potential within everyday words.
Note for US customers: These shirts are cut in a regular fit that runs smaller than typical US sizing. We recommend ordering one size up for your ideal fit.
