New apparel co provokes political discourse

A new Dallas-based apparel company where politics and fashion come together in a unique line of hip, edgy political shirts.
Meant to provoke discussion by asking outspoken, debatable questions about current national and socially-relevant political issues, our mission is to bring a level of social conscience and open up a debate about where our foreign and domestic policies are taking us as a nation.
Whether it be global warming, race, religion, abortion, Iraq, terrorism, human rights, gay rights or war, we need to become better educated and active in a world of social injustice.
The unique concept behind Politeed is that we don't tell you how to think. We don't tell you which side of the issue should be 'right' or 'wrong'. The intriguing concept behind Politeed is that you don't know why a person is wearing the shirt-which side of the issue are they on?
We believe that democracy allows the average person to take part in a national conversation about these issues. In a world where we are becoming isolated with our Blackberry and e-mail, we also believe there is too much focus on sound bites and cosmetics.
Every passion comes with risk. So the question then becomes, "Do you really believe in what you say?", states Sherry Henry, Politeed CEO.
If you want to make a political fashion statement, our designs allow you to 'wear your mind'. Created in the USA and speaking to the World!
We also believe in giving back to the community, so for every shirt purchased, Politeed will be giving a portion of our sales to what we believe is the number one issue the next generation faces-global warming. Read about our charitable contributions and charity under our Polar Bear Foundation section.
