Be Happy Tee

The "be happy" tee is built on a 7 oz midweight cotton that sits at exactly the right weight: substantial enough to feel like a real garment, loose and easy enough to move through a day without thinking about it. The original hand-drawn graphic, developed in-house and screenprinted in Nashville, has the honest quality of something pulled from a vintage trunk rather than a production line.

ABOUT IMOGENE + WILLIE

Nashville-born imogene + willie launched in 2009 with a simple promise: to make garments that last, every one of them in the USA. Founded on the belief that clothing should transcend trends, the brand cuts and sews everything in its own workshop, in small batches made with intention and designed to avoid unnecessary waste. Community has shaped every chapter of the brand's story, from donating over $232k in graphic tee proceeds to disaster relief efforts, to partnering with Nashville nonprofits and a local Sewing Academy whose workshop produces the brand's canvas totes.
