Respect the locals Manatee Tee

Embrace the spirit of Florida’s gentle giants with our eco-friendly Respect the Locals v-neck tank top!

A portion of proceeds from this tank supports Florida manatee conservation programs that protect seagrass beds, rescue injured manatees, and safeguard warm-water habitats essential to their survival. Manatees face threats from boat strikes, loss of seagrass, and cold stress — but together we can help ensure Florida’s state marine mammal continues to thrive for generations.

Wear it with pride. This tank isn’t just soft and stylish—it’s a stand for Florida’s most iconic locals.
