Your Legacy, Worn In Every Thread
Your Legacy, Worn In Every Thread
This isn’t a shirt. It’s a rebellion.
A rebellion against forgetting. A rebellion they began, and you continue.
When you wear this, you’re not just remembering history — you’re rewriting it.
You tell the world:
“I stand where they stood.
I speak where they were silenced.
I carry their fire.”
This is your story. Wear it unapologetically.

Printing Techniques
Each tee is made with love using Direct-to-Garment (DTG) technology, where the ink bonds with the fabric for a vibrant, true-to-life design with a charming vintage touch. This process creates a look that’s both eye-catching and timeless while also being eco-friendly, ensuring a lasting impression that won’t fade after just a few washes.
For darker shirts, you might notice a slight stiffness in the printed area at first due to the special treatment that enhances color vibrancy. Don’t worry—it softens beautifully after just a few washes, leaving you with the same soft feel as the rest of the tee.
Every item is made to order, just for you! While we’re unable to offer returns or exchanges due to this custom process, we’re always here to help if you have any questions or concerns.

The Long Walk was 400 miles. And it never truly ended.
The U.S. government called it relocation. The Diné people called it what it was. Thousands were forced from Canyon de Chelly at gunpoint, their livestock destroyed, their homes burned. The march west, across snow, desert, and river, lasted weeks.
Four years later, they were allowed to return.
The Long Walk did not end in 1868. It lives in the memory of every Navajo descendant who knows the name Bosque Redondo. This blanket exists to make sure that memory does not go quiet.
Woven, not printed.
Heritage weight in your hands.
Heritage weave pattern
The geometric pattern draws from traditional Navajo textile motifs. Angular, symmetrical, deliberate. Each line means something. Developed in consultation with Diné artisans for cultural accuracy and respect.
Woven cotton blend
60% cotton, 40% acrylic blend. Heavyweight at 3.5 lbs. Holds warmth without weight. The weave tightness produces a texture that feels handmade. Soft on first use. Better after every wash.
Made to last
Machine wash cold. Tumble dry low. No bleach. The colors hold. The pattern holds. This is made to be used. Thrown across a shoulder. Draped on a couch. Passed down.
We acknowledge the Diné.
We acknowledge the Diné people, the traditional owners and stewards of Dinétah, the Navajo homeland. This blanket was created with respect for their history and culture. It is a commemorative textile, not a ceremonial piece. The design was developed in consultation with Native artists.
Carry it both ways.
The Kiona tee has been worn by more than 10,000 people who wanted to carry this history with them. The blanket brings that same story into the home.
Together, they make a complete tribute. Or a gift someone will not forget.

Verified buyer voices, added as reviews come in.
Sandra M.
I bought this for my mother. She is Navajo. She held it for a long time before she said anything. Then she said: This is right. That was enough.
Dana R.
The weight of it surprised me. Not heavy in the wrong way. Heavy in the right way. Like it knows what it represents.
Theresa K.
I ordered the tee two years ago. I ordered the blanket the day it launched. I trust this brand to get it right.
Questions about this blanket
What are the exact dimensions?
What are the exact dimensions?
The blanket measures 50 inches wide by 60 inches long, a standard throw size. Large enough to cover two people seated, or one person fully wrapped. It sits well draped over a couch, bed, or armchair.
How do I wash it without damaging the pattern?
How do I wash it without damaging the pattern?
Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle. Tumble dry on low. Do not bleach. Do not dry-clean. The colors are woven, not printed, so they do not fade the way DTG printing can. After the first wash, the blanket softens noticeably.
Is this a good gift for someone with Navajo heritage?
Is this a good gift for someone with Navajo heritage?
Many buyers have purchased this as a gift for Diné family members, descendants, and allies. We recommend being honest about what it is: a tribute product made outside the Nation, designed in consultation with Native artists. It is not a traditional Navajo ceremonial piece. It is a commemorative item made with respect.
