Carrying Weight Alone Shirt Raw Real Unapologetic Caregiver Apparel
Reliable shipping

This soft cotton tee carries a quiet truth: "CAR•RY•ING / this weight alone /"
For caregivers handling everything while everyone else disappears.
Raw. Real. Unapologetic.
This isn't a "Caregiver Superhero" shirt. This is for caregivers who:
- Carry this weight without backup
- Handle appointments, medications, crises alone
- Wait for siblings who never show up
- Are exhausted from doing this solo
- Know that "just ask for help" is useless when nobody answers
Day1Father creates honest apparel for caregivers who reject toxic positivity. No hero narratives. No gratitude mandates. Just acknowledgment: you're carrying this alone, and that's not okay.
The weight is real. The isolation is real. This shirt names both.
Features:
• 100% ring-spun cotton (Heather colors: 90% cotton, 10% polyester)
• Soft, breathable, lightweight (4.5 oz/yd²)
• Classic crew neck
• Shoulder-to-shoulder taping
• Quarter-turned to avoid center crease
• Runs true to size
Available in Black, Military Green, and Dark Heather.
For the caregiver who's been waiting for someone to help. They're not coming.
Designed by someone who's been carrying this weight alone since age 11.
