Why I Started This Tattoo Inspired
T-Shirt Brand
I’m heavily tattooed, and I’ve always been drawn to bold self-expression—whether it’s through ink or attitude. Every time I looked for t-shirts that truly represented the tattoo community—our humor, our grit, our edge—I came up short. Everything felt watered down, too safe, or just totally off the mark.
So I created the kind of shirts I wanted to wear. Shirts that speak our language—funny, raw, sometimes dark, always real. Whether it’s sarcasm, brutal honesty, or just something that makes people do a double-take, these sayings capture the spirit of tattoo culture: unfiltered and unapologetic.
This brand isn’t about trends. It’s about creating something for the inked-up, straight-shooting, smart-ass tribe that gets it. The ones who wear their truth on their skin—and now on their shirts too.
If you’re tired of playing it safe, welcome. You’ve found your people.
