Statement vs. Slogan
There is a difference between wearing an idea and wearing a bumper sticker.
A slogan tells you what to think before you have had time to look. It is a command disguised as a garment: vote this way, fear this thing, buy the idea. It works because it is loud and because most people do not want to think very hard about what they are wearing.
A statement is different. A statement invites the room to catch up with it. It trusts the viewer to have a reaction, maybe an argument, maybe a question. The XX–XY sweater does not come with a leaflet. There is no QR code linking to a position paper. The statement is the object itself.
That is why we knitted it instead of printing it. A printed slogan can be peeled, ignored, or washed away. A jacquard design is part of the structure. You have to decide whether to put it on knowing full well that some people will read it one way and some people will read it another.
If you want a uniform for a side, there are plenty of places selling those. If you want a garment that makes the room slightly smarter for having to look at it, that is a different product entirely.
