NativeMade Adam Tetzlaff here, founder of NativeMade. I started NativeMade back in 2016 as a passion project to To me that means something.

I started NativeMade back in 2016 as a passion project to showcase why I fell in love with Chattanooga. Every design I create or collaborate on is a reflection of my time spent here in this beautiful city. Although I wasn’t born in Chattanooga, I chose to make it my home. It means that when you immerse yourself in the place where you live you become a local. Along with me you decided to become NativeMade. All of our products are designed and printed in the USA. We value the durability and comfort of our shirts, so we only print them on the highest quality of fabrics. Although we currently draw our inspiration from our home town of Chattanooga, TN, we strive to gain inspiration from the places we visit and locals we meet. We hope to someday represent cities all over the country. If you have some ideas of places we should visit here in Chattanooga or elsewhere, send us an email at [email protected], and we might end up creating a design for you.

There is just something about making things by hand. Yeah it takes a little more effort but the feeling you get afterwards is worth it. Love how these hang tags turned out.

We’re building something we’re proud of in a city we’re excited to be apart of. 10 years in and we’re just getting started.

The horrible traffic. The two-hour wait at P.F. Chang's. That one light that's only long enough for 2 cars. The unbearable number of options. That one questionable buffet you knew you shouldn't risk. You did anyway. And now here you are, dealing with the consequences.

You know the place. It's the scariest place on earth.

If you've braved it with kids: #1, what were you thinking? And #2... okay, hotshot.

And if you've wrapped up a Trader Joe's run and finished with a soft pretzel clutched in your hand as your prize, you're a true legend.

This shirt is too scary for most. You can't claim one unless you've braved the vast expanse yourself and come out the other side, forever changed and a little poorer. Get one and scare your mom, your coworker, or your neighbor's kids. They won't be able to sleep for weeks.

These frightening shirts don't drop until October. But one of you isn't waiting. Join the newsletter this week and you're entered to win one early. We name a survivor Friday.

No blood sacrifice necessary. Your call, mortal.

There's a spaceship on Signal Mountain? It's been there since the '70s, and if you grew up here, you know it well. It's weird, but it's also ours (kinda, like we don't own it but we OWN it if you know what I mean. Whatever.) Still standing strong, still inviting us to smile every time we drive by. Someone had an idea and they said "why not?" That's why it inspires us. Be weird. Do more things just because. You never know. It might just become a local treasure.

Oh, and the tees are back in stock.

The Scatter Joy Project makes mental health care actually reachable. Affordable, judgment-free, for the people who need it and might not otherwise get it.

Two ways to help: grab one of these shirts, or donate to them directly on their site. Either way, it counts.

100% of the profit from every shirt goes straight to them.

Scatter some joy. See what grows.

Today is World Su***de Prevention Day.

We spend this month telling each other to check in, to notice, to reach out. And you should. But here's the part that gets left out.

If you've already lost someone, and you're carrying the weight of what you didn't see, it's not your fault.

And if you're the one hurting and hiding right now, please, get help. There are people who love you and care about you. They may just not be able to see how much you're hurting. Let them.

Text "Scatter" to 741741, or call or text 988, any time, day or night. Close to home, NAMI Chattanooga is real people doing real work: namichattanooga.org.

Nobody gets through it alone.
