Charlotte has never been quiet about independence.
According to tradition, in May of 1775, news of the battles at Lexington and Concord reached Mecklenburg County. Local leaders gathered, authority was questioned, and a message was sent. What exactly was declared, and on which day, has been debated for generations.
And that debate is part of the legacy.
Some call it the Mecklenburg Declaration.
Some point to the Resolves.
Some will absolutely tell you their version before you finish the sentence.
This tee honors the story, the messenger, and the spirit of rebellion that gave Charlotte its Hornet’s Nest reputation. The detailed rider graphic is inspired by local monuments and the long-held tradition of defiance in the face of tyranny that shaped this place.
Whether you wear it as history, hometown pride, or a conversation starter, this piece is for those who know that Charlotte has always had opinions.
Details:
Soft, comfortable fit
Available in multiple sizes
Printed with intention in a single ink tone for a timeless look
Wear the version that feels true to you.
Printed with love. Debated with pride.
