About Us

We’ve got your back, and your front too.

Latissimus Dorsey Premium Design & Apparel is a minority owned and operated Black family business. Our business model is built around providing only premium shirts with unique, creative, and authentic designs. You will not find our designs anywhere else - unless they are copied from us!

Our business name was taken from the human body. The Latissimus dorsi muscle is the largest muscle in your back. It covers the vast majority of your back, and it is shaped like the way a woman covers her body with a towel, after getting out of the shower, sauna, pool, or a bath. This is also where we came up with our tagline. 

We print all of our unique designs on Bella+Canvas Premium blanks where possible. Bella+Canvas produces all their products in the United States and that means no sweatshops! To learn more about Bella+Canvas premium tees, click on this link.

When a design calls for a blank Bella+Canvas does not offer, we will still only use the premium blanks, that the company chooses. Unfortunately, not every company we use manufactures their garments in the US.

Our goal as a company is to be a socially conscious and socially responsible brand. Our shirt designs will reflect that. We want to be a source of education and a catalyst to bring about change throughout the world, but especially in the United States. The importance of the struggle of Black Americans and of all people of color… Indigenous Americans, Mexicans, Asians, Indians and the many people from the Caribbean, African and Middle Eastern countries that now make American their home.

Our brand will lean towards the plight of people of color, but you will see in future product launches the directions we take our brand. If you can get behind us, please support us.
