  • “I love my OKRA t-shirt — it’s soft and comfortable, well-made and never skimpy, and the OKRA design by Shamira is pure wearable art.”

    Janet F.

  • "The fun color combination and design remind me of Shamira's murals and paintings. It's now one of my favorite shirts to put on fresh from the wash because it's soft and links me to a cool local project. "

    Ellery D.

  • “You can feel and see the intention that Shamira put into this design. The cotton is soft on the skin and the okra logo is a beautiful, colorful homage to the plant that that not only feeds but nurtures, blooms a beautiful yellow flower with a purple center, AND whose fibers can be used to create clothing (Shamira taught me that). Looking forward to the next swagriculture drop!”
