Silver Gull - standing with chip | Organic Staple T-shirt
The silver gull is one of Australia’s most familiar coastal birds, instantly recognised by its bright red bill, pale grey wings and confident strut around beaches, parks and… your hot chips. Found right across the country, it’s an opportunistic feeder, happily switching between fish, scraps and just about anything it can grab. While incredibly adaptable, human waste and pollution can impact their health and behaviour, and organisations like Tangaroa Blue Foundation work to reduce marine debris and protect coastal ecosystems. Silver gulls have mastered the art of the perfectly timed chip snatch — usually appearing out of nowhere the second you look away.
- Fabric: Mid weight, 100% combed organic cotton (15% viscose in marle colourways) sustainably grown without herbicides or pesticides.
- Fit: Regular fit with a crew neck.
- Construction: Side-seamed, GOTS-certified, with neck ribbing, shoulder-to-shoulder tape, and double needle hems. It is also pre-shrunk to minimize shrinkage.
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.
