The Cutest, Cleverest Women's March Merch That Actually Gives Back To The Cause
Hell hath no fury like a woman whose rights are being threatened. The 2018 women's march is happening tomorrow, and whether or not you're able to protest, find out where to buy Women's March Merchandise so you can support the cause even when you're not marching or chanting. And because I'd never leave you wanting more, also check out the clever Women's March sign ideas for inspo.
It's hard to believe that it's been almost a year since the 2017 Women's March, but Jan. 20, 2018 will be the second installment of the protest, and it's more important than ever to show your support. The movement has come to represent a broad scope of issues such as women's reproductive rights, equal pay, same sex marriage, an end to sexual harassment, and equality for everyone regardless of gender, sexual orientation, race, ethnicity, or any other "label." So much is at stake, but that doesn't mean you can't care about your style at the same time.
I wore my favorite "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun...damental Human Rights" sweatshirt to the Women's March on Washington last year, and every time I pull it over my head, I remember how I stood up for myself and women everywhere that day. In the past year, an immeasurable amount of feminist-themed merchandise has arose, and while repping your cause in any way is great, purchasing from brands that give back is paramount. Many companies donate all or some of their Women's March merchandise proceeds to the cause, so your support will mean even than snagging a pithy "Cats Against Cat-calling" T-shirt. Plus, when you buy feminist fashion merch, you can wear it long after the Women's March.
