Vegan clothing

Vegan t-shirts can be a great way to get a conversation started, especially if the tees are awesome designs in their own right. Here's a selection of my favourite vegan clothing options on the market and where to buy them.



£18.60 (approx $31)

Sometimes it's best just to keep things simple. There's no ambiguity here, just a powerful statement about your ethical alignment. This UK company also make tote bags and wrist bands, generally aimed at younger vegans. They also offer free worldwide shipping which is pretty handy wherever you are.


£20 (approx $34)

Probably the most ethical choice of all the shirts I've featured, this tee is fairtrade, organic cotton, printed in the UK with environmentally friendly water-based inks. And all of the profits go to Mino Valley Farm Sanctuary in Northern Spain. So quadruple bonus points for ethics. It also uses typography and a limited palette in a rather lovely way to get its message across.


$25 (approx £15)

This utterly adorable tank top has a lovely, positive message and who can resist a tank with bunnies on it?! Perfect for starting peaceful, thoughtful vegan conversation, this design can also be found on t-shirts (including men's sizes), long-sleeved tops, hoodies, button badges and as a print.


$35 (approx £21)

Who can argue against such a catchy rhyming slogan? I certainly can't. Combine this with a neat colour scheme and distressed effect print and you've got a pretty sweet addition to any wardrobe. Herbivore clothing also never use suppliers that use sweatshops so they get a bonus point for human rights ethics too.


Green Dino Kale from V Apparel
$20 (approx £12)

Dinosaurs and kale, two of my favourite things, brought together on a gorgeously bright green organic cotton tee. I also adore the way the model wears this with a (vegan) belt and rolled up sleeves - right on trend. This top is also on sale at the moment so grab yourself a bargain and show off your kale love at the same time.
