Love hearing this! 💖 We're so happy the Slay tee is a hit. Thanks for taking the time to leave a review!
Just received my new shirt! I was away on vacation when it arrived, so a nice surprise to come home to. It is so comfortable and soft, but not clingy material at all! The design is fun and I couldn’t be happier with it!
Store owner replied:
What a wonderful review. Thank you for sharing! I'm so glad your Rainbow Tee was such a nice welcome-home surprise. Enjoy wearing it, and thanks for supporting Social Made Local! 🌈

We really appreciate your kind words! 😊 We're so happy you liked the design and quality. Hope you love wearing it, and thanks for supporting Social Made Local!
Love this t-shirt and is the perfect shade of pink!
So comfy and fits in all the right places.
I bought a large and it is a bit longer than id like, but fits great in the shoulders and torso.
Store owner replied:
Thanks so much! 💖 We're so glad you love the colour and fit. We really appreciate the feedback on the length too, and hope you enjoy your new tee!
So, I love my shirts - but I was surprised that the Saskatoon company (Social Made LOCAL) shipped from Toronto and the t-shirts were made in Nicaragua. It seemed somewhat antithetical to the name.
Store owner replied:
We completely understand your surprise. Social Made Local is a Saskatchewan-based, queer-owned small business, and the "Made Local" in our name refers to creating social change at the local level through art, storytelling, and community. Every design is created in collaboration with human designers across Canada.
To reduce waste and offer a wider range of sizes, we print each order on demand through our Canadian production partner, which includes a facility in Toronto. Our blank apparel is made by WRAP-certified manufacturing partners in countries like Nicaragua, which is standard across much of the apparel industry. While we'd love to manufacture every part of our apparel in Canada, that simply isn't a viable option for our small business.
We really appreciate your feedback and your support.
Store owner replied:
Thank you for your honest feedback. We're sorry to hear the shirt didn't meet your expectations. While our apparel is designed in Canada and printed locally, we use premium WRAP-certified blanks that are ethically manufactured overseas, including Nicaragua. We appreciate you sharing your thoughts, and we'll keep your feedback in mind as we continue to improve.
Love my shirt. Fits perfect and I've gotten so many compliments already!
Store owner replied:
Thanks so much! 😊 We're so glad you love it. Hearing that you're already getting compliments makes our day. Hope you enjoy wearing it for years to come!
Love the quality of the fabric & so far after 2 cold water washes the graphic is holding up great.
Store owner replied:
Thanks so much! 💙 We're so happy you're loving the quality, and it's great to hear the print is holding up beautifully. Enjoy your One Pride Tee!
Always great quality from this crew! I could have sized down, and may order a smaller size in the future. But love the shirt and the design!
Store owner replied:
Thanks for the kind words! 💛 We're so happy you love the shirt. Sizing can be tough sometimes, so don't hesitate to reach out if you ever have any questions!
Store owner replied:
Thanks so much! We're so happy the shirt fit you perfectly and that you're enjoying the quality. We really appreciate your support!
Store owner replied:
Thanks so much! 😊 We're so glad the fit was perfect. We hope it's one of those shirts you reach for again and again!
This tank top was totally made with love! I can feel it when I’m wearing it! The love is there in the soft fabric and in the awesome follow up from the good folks at Social Made local
Store owner replied:
Haha, mission accomplished 😂 So glad you love it! Thanks for the kind words, and we hope it keeps doing its very important job. ❤️
Super soft and comfy. fits as described. Love this shirt so much!
From shopping to shipping and delivery, everything was clear and concise making my experience wonderful and stress free! Currently loving my shirt and will be continuing my support!
The fit was perfect size. The only thing I would suggest would be to make it a bit shorter. Otherwise I absolutely love the feel of the fabric and the art work is amazing!!!
Store owner replied:
Thank you, this is one of our favs. 💖
I love this top! Very cute, very comfy. I love buying from a Canadian company that is LGBTQ owned as well. This is my third purchase so far, the fabric is always nice, and the screen printing holds up well. I bought my "pride til I die" shirt about 3 years ago and it is beautiful as ever and my fruity shirt was about 2 years ago now I think. Anyways, love the brand, love the message, love the love.
I love this shirt! This is the best photo I have in it, when I was in Canmore and found a rainbow crosswalk. The shirt is so comfy and I love wearing it! The design is fantastic and I'm so glad I made this purchase!
