Graphic art decorates sustainable bandanas available at Custard Boutique
Bandanas are a partly fashionable and partly functional Americana staple. You might associate them with Rosie the Riveter, Tupac Shakur, or Willie Nelson, but the paisley square dates to the 17th century Middle East, Southern Asia, and Japan. Across nations, oceans, and time, the iconic accessory has undergone many styles, forms, and functions. Today, you can find them as colorful Bandits Bandanas, available at Custard Boutique in downtown Greenville.
Like many of the goods at Custard Boutique, each Bandits Bandana supports artists, charities, and workers worldwide. Artists from Mexico, Australia, Thailand, and the United States design graphic artwork adorning the cotton squares. Each artist chooses a charity, and 10 percent of the sale goes to a charity in support of the environment, conservation, social justice, animal welfare, arts, education, health, and human services. The bandanas are also printed, stitched, and packaged in fair trade facilities.
With the Western wear revival, bandanas are both a timeless and a trendy accessory. With a Bandits Bandana, you can wear a current classic while supporting positive change, as part of your purchase goes to organizations like National Park Project, Navajo Water Project, and World Central Kitchen. A bandana is a versatile staple, and you can be as creative with it as the artwork featured on its sustainable cotton. Maybe you even have a critter who’d like to wear some art.
Versatile Wearability of Bandits Bandanas
A bandana can be worn around your neck as a tie, in your pocket as a pocket square or handkerchief, or as a ’90s-style triangle bandana tying back your hair. For styling inspiration and ideas, go to banditsbandanas.com/how-to-wear.
