Australian Brush-turkey | Organic Staple T-shirt
The Australian Brushturkey is one of the most comical and confident characters in Australia’s bird world, and it has no problem strutting its stuff! With its bright red head, yellow wattle, and scruffy black feathers, this ground-dwelling bird looks like it’s constantly on a mission to make a bold statement. Found in the forests and woodlands of eastern Australia, the Brushturkey is an expert at rummaging through leaf litter in search of fruit, seeds, and insects. Despite being a relatively shy bird, the Brushturkey can be surprisingly assertive, especially when it comes to its impressive nest-building skills—males construct massive, carefully-heated mounds to attract females, often going above and beyond in terms of size and warmth. Imagine this quirky, flamboyant bird on a tee-shirt, with its bright red head and eccentric look taking center stage. A Brushturkey tee would be a fun, eye-catching way to show off your love for Australia’s weird and wonderful wildlife, adding a bit of personality and humor to your wardrobe!
- 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.
