Birdwing Butterfly | Organic Staple T-shirt
The Birdwing Butterfly is one of Australia’s most spectacular insects, with wings so large and colorful they almost look like they belong to a bird! Known for its vibrant yellow, green, and black patterns, the Birdwing Butterfly is one of the largest butterflies in the world, with a wingspan that can stretch up to 25 centimeters. Found in the tropical rainforests of northern Queensland, these butterflies are not just beautiful, they’re also vital to the ecosystem, pollinating a wide range of native plants. Their larvae feed on plants like the Dutchman’s pipe vine, making them an important part of the rainforest’s plant life cycle. Imagine the stunning colors and graceful wings of a Birdwing Butterfly on a tee-shirt—such a bold and beautiful design would be a perfect way to wear a piece of Australia’s natural wonder. A Birdwing Butterfly tee would bring the stunning vibrancy of the rainforest to your wardrobe, turning heads and adding a touch of nature’s elegance to your everyday style!
- Fabric: Mid weight, 100% combed organic cotton (15% viscose in marle colourways) sustainably grown without herbicides or pesticides.

Care- for maximum print life:
- Turn inside out: Always invert your shirt before putting it in the wash to reduce friction against the Direct-to-Garment (DTG) ink.
- Cold & gentle: Wash the garment on a cold cycle (under 30°C) on your machine's gentlest setting.
- Mild detergent only: Use standard, mild washing powder. Avoid heavy-duty detergents, enzymes, and bleaching agents (even non-chlorine ones, if possible).
- No softeners: Do not use fabric softeners, as these can strip or degrade the coloured inks.
