This product is Ally Friendly.
Ally friendly merch is for everyone.
When we see non-Indigenous people wearing our designs, we feel proud that they are repping our merch and culture.
When we see Aboriginal designs in the world, it means Indigenous people are not invisible in the landscape.
But, purchasing from Aboriginal brands, businesses and wearing Indigenous designs alone is surface-level allyship. There needs to be more commitment than just buying from Aboriginal brands and businesses.
Wearing Aboriginal design is not dismantling a system that oppresses Indigenous people. Allies need to do more and learn more. Wearing our tees is a great starting point. We have equipped you with our merch and some of the educational content to go with them. We want you to go out in the world, have these important conversations and find ways to do more and support more.
The full phrase "Always Was, Always Will Be Aboriginal Land" can be traced back to the Aboriginal land rights movement in far-western New South Wales.
The late Barkandji man Uncle William Bates is credited with leading the rallies that birthed the cry, which is now ubiquitous at Aboriginal civil rights rallies.
The phrase came from a conversation in which Uncle William said to his father, "it's not your land anymore, whitefellas own it".
Uncle Jim Bates replied: "No, they only borrowed it; it always was, and always will be Aboriginal land."

Amazing fit and really comfortable. The material feels super lux, both on the inside and the outside.
This is the nicest hoodie I've ever worn! Such great quality! The pockets are deep and I love that they are separate (not kangaroo pocket) The hood is also deep and covers my entire head and forehead, so cosy! Love the colour, the message, the design, everything!
This is super comfy. I struggled choosing the right size online but loving the feel and fit. Especially love the message.
It’s soft and thick with a large hood and great warmth - love it
Beautiful thick material gorgeous logo and perfect words on the back.

Well made colourful badge with a powerful message. A few positive comments and number of sneers.
Handed some out to friends and family.
Once a year I buy something from this great company and round up for a tip/donation. THIS year had this vintage rock inspired quality t shirt. It is perfect. And as an old school screen printer by trade I love how their t shirts are screen printed. It's just very cool and carries the message we should all be wearing. The added sticker and post card are always welcome & appreciated. Thank you CTG. Always great quality. ❤️🖤💛
Thank you for providing these free NAIDOC Week downloads. My friend and I both printed and laminated them in A3 and proudly displayed them in our front windows.
It’s a simple but meaningful way for us to show our support and solidarity during NAIDOC Week, and we hope it encourages others to take a moment to reflect on this year’s celebrations. We really appreciate you making these resources freely available.
So they say we stole this land, Briggs says the children came back, I would like to think we only borrowed it and will give it back to the DreamTime Asp but I wish we left it better than we found it.
