The official Michael West collection, printed in Sydney by us. Michael West is a Walkley-winning investigative journalist who spent decades at the big mastheads before founding Michael West Media: independent, reader-funded, no advertising, and dedicated to the stories powerful people would rather stayed buried, from multinational tax dodgers to banking scandals to who's actually funding whom in Canberra.
Independent journalism runs entirely on the support of the people who value it, and merch is one of the more enjoyable ways to provide it. Every order from this official collaboration provides real support to that work, and you walk away with designs that signal, quietly or not so quietly, that you're paying attention to who actually runs the country and how.
The designs suit the subject matter: sharp, wry, and made for people whose media diet includes the stories the big mastheads won't touch. They pair naturally with our other truth-adjacent collabs, and if your wardrobe is developing a theme, we consider that a feature.
Like everything we print, each piece is made to order in our Sydney studio on ethically sourced blanks, in sizes XS to 5XL on most garments with gender neutral fits. Orders usually dispatch within seven working days, Australian shipping is free over $85, and most products carry our 100-day returns policy.
Complete the set: The Chaser for satire, Purple Pingers for housing justice, and our broader collaborations page for every artist and partner we work with. Democracy dies in darkness; it lives in good tees.
Is this official?
Yes, an official collaboration. Support flows through with every order.
