Fabric & Care

Thickness

Lightweight Heavyweight

Softness
Rough Super Soft

Breathability
Waterproof Breathable


For best care, machine wash gently in cold water, using a mild detergent, and avoid using bleach or fabric softeners.

Line dry out of direct sunlight, refrain from tumble drying to prevent shrinkage or fabric deterioration. If necessary, use a cool iron on the reverse side of the fabric to avoid damaging any prints or embellishments.

Avoid contact with rough surfaces or abrasive materials, as this may cause pilling or snags in the fabric. For long-term care, store the garment in a dry place and avoid prolonged exposure to direct heat or moisture.

Sustainability 🍃

Environmentally Responsible
Crafted from premium yarns made from recycled PET bottles, this polo is printed with advanced, high-quality, carcinogen-free inks. This ensures not only vibrant, lasting designs but also minimises harmful environmental impact throughout the printing process.

‎

Sustainable Production
Life Apparel is committed to sustainability by partnering with vetted local and international manufacturers. We produce limited quantities of each design, ensuring both exclusivity and preventing overproduction, which helps to reduce waste and minimise our environmental footprint.

‎

Eco-Friendly Packaging
Our commitment to sustainability extends to our packaging, which is entirely plastic-free. We use kerbside-recyclable or home-compostable mailers to reduce landfill waste. All deliveries are managed by Australia Post, which actively supports carbon-offset projects aimed at reducing emissions and promoting a greener future.

Maria Watson-Trudgett is a First Nations consultant and Aboriginal artist of Wiradyuri people, currently resides on Yugerra Country (Queensland).

"Bila" and "Ngurambang" are words from the Wiradjuri language, meaning river and country. The Wiradjuri people, also known as ‘river people,’ were skilled hunter-fisher-gatherers who lived and moved along the rivers and surrounding landscape, sourcing food for survival and caring for Country. For tens of thousands of years, First Nations people have managed their land and its inhabitants to ensure environmental harmony and sustainability. Keeping balance in the environment is central to our people’s way of thinking, being, and connection to spiritual and cultural identity.

The impacts of climate change are exacerbating our ability to protect and maintain significant biodiversity across Australia and the globe. Biodiversity is everyone’s responsibility. It is crucial to broaden our awareness, compassion, and respect to embrace all living creatures and the natural environment. Biodiversity will not be maintained through inaction—stand with First Nations people to care for Country.

Beautiful design. Nice arts. The fabric is a little bit not up to my expectation; a bit not soft on the skin. Overall, fantastic. Tks

Gorgeous!

Maria Watson-Trudgett is a truly gifted artist and this shirt is vibrant and eye-catching - be prepared to attract attention and be given compliments when you wear this shirt! It feels beautiful to wear, though I bought it a little too large so I have a bit more shirt than I bargained for but that doesn't stop me wearing this gorgeous, high-quality garment! I highly recommend all of Life Apparel's products and love the vivacious nature of the colours in Bila Ngurambang for men or women alike. :o)

Maria’s work is amazing! Appreciate your feedback Linda, enjoy! 🙌

Exactly as described. Beautiful design.

Love the polo shirt. The artwork is beautiful and the shirt is exactly as it was described. I ordered a larger size than I needed just in case it was a small fit but this was unnecessary.

So good to hear this Angela, thanks for the support!
