Respect the locals - Manta Ray

Our newest Respect the Locals design features the elegant and endangered manta ray, printed in bold magenta and electric blue on the back of this ultra-soft eco tee. With their graceful wings and deep-ocean mystique, manta rays symbolize the beauty and vulnerability of our seas—making this shirt more than just a statement. It’s a reminder to protect what we love.

A portion of the proceeds from this tee is donated to The Florida Manta Project, the first dedicated study of Florida’s manta rays. Their pioneering work identifies critical habitats, supports government protections, and promotes conservation awareness—helping ensure these gentle giants thrive for generations to come.

Wear it with pride. This tee isn’t just comfy—it’s a call to respect and protect Florida’s most treasured endangered species.
