    High-quality, responsible printing: Our products are printed using heat transfer sublimation, a printing technique that is widely considered to be the safest for both workers and the environment. It requires no water, eliminates dye from entering water systems, and minimizes ink and fabric waste. All the inks and dyes we use are also OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 certified.

    Recycled materials, minimal waste: Our commitment to environmental responsibility starts with sustainable fibers and yarns. We use synthetic yarns made from recycled plastic bottles, which helps remove and repurpose existing plastic.

Advocate Apparel Inspired by restoring reef habitat with ORAI's 1000 mermaids project

Restoring reef habitat through artificial reefs is essential because coral reefs are rapidly declining due to warming oceans, pollution, and coastal development. Artificial reefs provide new surfaces for corals and marine life to settle, helping rebuild biodiversity and strengthen coastal ecosystems. They also relieve pressure on natural reefs by creating additional habitat where it’s needed most.

Ocean Rescue Alliance International’s 1000 Mermaids Artificial Reef Project takes this restoration a step further by combining marine science with art. They deploy sculpted reef modules, many cast from real people, that are engineered to support coral growth and marine life, creating reef habitat and engaging communities.

5% of sales from your purchase of this product are donated to The 1000 Mermaids Artificial Reef Project, led by Ocean Rescue Alliance International (ORAI)
