Whale Shark T-Shirt

The largest species of shark and one of the largest marine creatures alive today, the Whale Shark are an endangered species that travel huge distances through tropical waters to gather enough plankton to sustain them. They’re a magnificent species that are still being researched by charities like the Maldives Whale Shark Research Project. Did you know that where young whale sharks reside is still unknown? Young whale sharks are very rarely found. It’s a wonder to think of all we don’t know about the sea!

£2 from each sale goes to charity

Each t-shirt design in this collection will be donating £2 of its profits to a charity that supports that animal. The Whale Shark design will be donated to the Maldives Whale Shark Research Program, a charity that's made it its mission to both study whale sharks and advocate for their conservation in the Maldives. Their research has previously helped to provide the baseline data needed to create the South Ari Marine Protected area, the Maldives’ largest protected area.

Eco-friendly to a T (-shirt!)

These eco-friendly t-shirts encompass every value I hold dear at Emily and the Whippet:

• Made from super soft 100% certified organic ringspun combed cotton

• A tree is planted for every order I receive on the website. You’ll get an email with more information on your tree within a few days!

• Fully vegan certified - no animals were hurt in the creation of these!

• From a company that supports garments workers rights, ensuring proper pay and working conditions for those who create the base t-shirts

• Posted in sustainable, plastic-free compostable packaging, ready to go straight into your recycling or compost bin

• They’re printed on demand to reduce textile waste. The UK alone sends 10,000 items of clothing to landfills every five minutes!

Sizing information

These t-shirts are available in sizes XXS to 2XL in medium-dark heather grey and XXS to 5XL in white. They’re a unisex, medium fit, single jersey with set-in sleeves - perfect for everyone! I’m a size 18 and I’m wearing the 2XL in the photos and the sleeves and length are wonderful for someone like me who likes the extra length. It’s soft and comfy and the perfect thing for wearing out and about or cuddling up on the sofa with the whippet! I’d probably be okay in an XL but I like the extra room!

Please be aware that colours may appear different due to your computer monitor.

Your t-shirt will be dispatched from our supplier, within 5 days. These t-shirts and mugs are sent directly to you from my supplier.
