March isn’t just about the end of winter and the start of spring — it's also Women’s History Month, a month-long celebration established in 1987 by the National Women’s History Project. And know that here are many ways to participate: Not only can you learn about the many facets of women’s history, but you can also support causes that are near and dear to your heart via fun visual items, like feminist shirts or pins that tout empowering slogans and raise awareness.
You can make your passion for feminist causes well-known with a shirt that supports survivors, advocates for women in STEM, commemorates women’s suffrage, or celebrates Planned Parenthood, among others. If you’re a passionate advocate for these tenets (and there are many more to get behind), then this list of feminist shirts definitely makes a great addition to your wardrobe.
Sometimes, the most impactful statements aren’t spoken aloud at all. When it comes to expressing your beliefs, having your values spelled out on a tee can do a lot of the talking for you — and save you the trouble of explaining it louder for the people in the back!
This timeless phrase isn't just a Spice Girls mantra: It can be customized in numerous styles, colors, and illustrations, too. You can easily find one that vibes with your individual approach to feminism.
This shirt makes a great gift for women learning about the significance of Women’s History Month — or it can just be another fab addition to your growing shirt collection.
This feminist shirt is perfect for those who want a more creative take on a political statement tee. “Empowered women empower women” isn’t just a play on words; it’s a supremely valuable sentiment as well. As for how to walk the walk? Try to support a women-owned business this month, for starters.
Whether you’re into this shirt’s ’70s-inspired New Age graphics, its crucial message, or both, there are no two ways about it: This shirt is a must-have. The landmark 1973 case of Roe v. Wade ensured that women had access to safe, legal abortions, and this stylish yet statement-making shirt proudly shows off your stance on women's rights to body autonomy and life-saving healthcare.
Minimalist and direct — what's not to love? (Props to the fact that this shirt comes with a period at the end ... aka this is not a negotiation.) This best-selling feminist shirt comes in multiple colors and styles, and also offers onesies! Thanks to us, you just found your new basic everyday tee.
In a perfect world, we wouldn’t even need reminders like this ... but until that day comes, we’re shouting it from the rooftops! It even comes in a trendy ’90s graphic that gives us fond memories of old-school Lisa Frank or Adobe Pagemaker nevertheless.
In case folks needed a civics refresh, freedom and equality are considered inalienable rights under the Pledge of Allegiance. This shirt is a colorful yet simple reminder of how we're all equal under the law, regardless of race, creed, ethnicity, sexual orientation, or ability.
The sharp, biting wit of the irrepressible Jane Austen rings true to this day. Arm yourself with this quote from everyone's favorite strong-willed heroine, Elizabeth Bennet, to show that you will not be silenced. Mr. Darcy could never.
Punk, but make it cute! We're not usually in the business of telling people what to do, but listening to this no-nonsense tee seems like a good place to start. (P.S. It comes in three vintage-wash colors that add to the rock vibe.)
There can be only one Notorious R.B.G., but we can all pay homage. We owe a whole lot to the late Justice Ginsburg (her tireless fight for women's rights is legendary). This trompe l'oeil tribute to her iconic Banana Republic “dissent collar” signifies that although she may be gone, her fight is never forgotten, and we're here to carry the torch.
The campaign for women's suffrage was considered the largest reform movement in American history, lasting for more than 70 years. Yes, we're lucky to live in a post-19th Amendment world — but it also behooves us all to be reminded of what it took to get here.
This NASA-inspired shirt has an important sentiment about the representation of women in STEM (otherwise known as science, technology, engineering, and mathematics.) It makes a great gift or show of support for the woman in your life who works in these fields ... or is studying to do so.
Serve some serious “don’t interrupt me” energy with this adorable, long-sleeved tee inspired by VP Harris’ famous debate moment. The tee comes pre-shrunk in unisex sizing, and makes a great gift for outspoken feminists everywhere.
This 100%-cotton pink tee designed by artist Marco Santini features a heart print that says “equality” in 50 languages. All proceeds from this shirt support UN Women’s programs across the globe via the “Generation Equality: Realizing Women’s Rights for an Equal Future” campaign.
Purchases help with a multitude of causes, including providing dignity kits to women in disaster areas and teaching women how to read and write.
Wild Fang is a renowned feminist clothing brand known for its queer-inclusive clothing, stylish suits, and feminist shirts. We love that this low-key graphic shirt can easily be edged up with some accessories.
A major tenet within the feminist movement is believing and supporting survivors of sexual violence and assault. If this is something you want to highlight, consider picking up this no-B.S. tee. All proceeds from the purchase support sexual violence prevention and real-time response services.
From outfit-policing to the furor around reproductive rights, this sentiment can (sadly) be applied to many different feminist issues. Assert your agency with this cheeky, subtle design that contains a message that's anything but.
Planned Parenthood stands for so much of what the feminist movement fights and advocates for: equitable care for everyone, regardless of their identity, class, or race. And PP can always benefit from people supporting their organization, too. This can be done through volunteering, donating, or (yup!) getting one of their popular shirts.
Feminism is nothing if not intersectional: This shirt from designer Kyle Krieger guarantees that 100% of the proceeds go to anti-racist and pro LGBTQIA+ organizations like Black Lives Matter, the Audre Lorde Project, The Center South, and GLAAD's NEON initiative to highlight Black LGBTQIA+ stories.
This shirt is reminiscent of the mermaid scene in Peter Pan — but way cooler, and much less catty! Embracing one of feminism’s many core values via cute, ’zine-inspired mermaids? Sounds like a win-win to us.
We stan a strong, smart superhero. This 100%-cotton tee illustrated by Sarah Watts honors Malala Yousafzai — Taliban survivor, girls' education advocate, and international crusader. She's also the youngest recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize! (No biggie.)
A portion of the proceeds from any of Piccolina's Malala-inspired products supports the Malala Fund, an organization that funds every girl's right to 12 years of free, safe, quality education in countries that need it the most.
