Post the ones you own or just like.

I personally have owned a few but right now just have this one from Farm Sanctuary:

(writing is kind of hard to make out in this picture but it says "a compassionate world begins with you")

Plan on ordering this one soon:


I don't like them to be too cute but I don't like the really militant ones either.

Also any ideas about ones you would like to be made? I know we could come up with some better ones than a lot of the common shirts you see on ebay and cafepress.

I'm completely different in that department - I can't find apparel with a militant enough message.
I like when people try coming at me with their regurgitated arguments and cut&paste "clever" remarks, and I can shoot them down with a good dose of pointed humiliation.

While you may win arguments this way I'm not sure how much it helps any animals. I've had discussions with omnivores that ended with them saying things like "You're right. I'm not going to win this one, but I'm still going to eat meat." I don't consider this a victory.

I'm not trying to discourage you from wearing whatever you want but I know for me it wouldn't be the best way to approach the issues.

There are people that can have a serious conversation about these things - those people, I will be pleasant and reasonable with.

Then there are people who will walk up to you, trying to prove something to themselves or their friends, saying "For every animal you DON'T eat, I eat THREE! HAW HAW HAW!" For them, I have no mercy.

This is quite good too, bit like omnivore bingo on a t-shirt:

I have never actually bought or worn a vegan t-shirt... I never have the money... but most of the ones that are available I wouldn't wear.
In the third link, that model is EXCEPTIONALLY gorgeous. I like the shirt too.
I prefer the shirt in the 4th link. If I were vegan, I would absolutely wear that.

Oh, ok. I get that. I've never had an experience where someone came up to me and said something really stupid like that.

I've been yearning for the 'Bacon Had A Mom' short for a while now. The 'I WANT TO F U' and 'Vegans kick ass, meat eaters eat ass' shirts are great!

I've been an outspoken vegetarian since middle school, so I'm more than familiar with the type. I seriously had people shoving chicken in my face, and leaving meat on my desk in those days...

Most of the vegan shirts I have are like 3 years old and have stains on them haha. My favorite one that I usually wear now that is still clean is one that says VEGAN in green then below that it says, Animals - Earth - Health. The shirt is black.

I have one with a cute chick on it that says "I am not a nugget." It's from PETA. I think it's pretty non-confrontational and gets the point across in a humorous way. I'm not comfortable with anything too militant, since my husband is an omni and we have a live-and-let-live agreement; I wouldn't want my shirt to make him feel attacked.

I've only ever had one, and it had a picture of a lairy looking cow and it said "how about I eat you ****er" hang on.... here I found it http://www.vegan-wonderland.de/catal...rt-p-1818.html

Which is sort of funny because I don't actually like veg*an tshirts much, because I don't really feel the need to put my beliefs on my shirt, and I don't like to provok confrontation, and it's so in your face... so I don't know why the only time I bought one I bought the lairest one I could find! I bought it at a vegan fayre and I only wore it to bed and the day I bought it!

Actually though, it was at BVF and I went into the town centre and got nothing put positive reactions from people, lots of people said "I eat meat, but that's pretty funny" or "I like your tshirt" etc. I was really supprised!

If I ever got another one, I like those heribivore ones because they're pretty and subtle, but I doubt it'll ever happen

I do quite like that angry cow one. Haha.
Today I saw a guy wearing a shirt that said "animal protein causes cancer." Which was simple and too the point. I liked it but wouldn't wear it.
I really want one that is similar to the questions one that was already posted. I don't actually own any right now though.
