The Chicago Don’t Tread On Us patch flips the city flag into a printed demand. Four stars. Sky blue bars. Now with bite. This piece stands with street medics, mutual aid crews, and radical neighbors from Pilsen to Uptown. For every protestor who’s marched down Lake Shore Drive and every organizer who’s built something under threat. It hits harder than bootlicker slogans and wears louder than tired civics. Give it to someone who’s had enough. Keep it for the next action. Chicago doesn’t kneel. And we don’t ask twice.

Fight With Purpose

Automatic donations to related charities

What's your deal, anyway?

Fair ask. We’ve been creating anti-fascist and progressive art for over 25 years. Chicago made us, but now we’re full-time nomads making art and products that espouse our beliefs in human rights and social justice. We design things for the communities we come from and the ones we fight alongside, with a portion of sales donated to causes we support. We’re stubborn, loud, and allergic to neutrality. No fascists. No excuses.

I don't see the style I want.

Most of our items are available in a wide range of sizes. Additionally, most items are available in various styles. If you see a T-shirt design you like and want it on a hoodie, check the hoodies section or use the search bar. You can also customize the style and color of most designs in the custom section of our website.

Feel free to contact us if you can't find what you're looking for, and we'll do our best to make it happen.

What causes do you give to?

We donate $1 of each item sold to non-profits and organizations supporting progressive, humanitarian, and justice-oriented causes around the world. All donations are automatically calculated and transferred to our charity partner every month to ensure compliance and timely processing.

What is your return policy?

We want you to love your Strange Gang goodies! If you're not completely satisfied with your purchase, you request a return for a refund or exchange within 7 days of receipt.

Chicago Gadsden Flag Patch on a denim jacket's chest depicts two light-blue stripes, four red stars, and DON’T TREAD ON US, symbolizing local power and civic justice advocacy.

No Bosses, No Boots.

Chicago doesn't whisper. It bellows through sirens and train brakes and protest chants that bounce between skyscrapers. The Don’t Tread On Us patch is that echo made visible. We stripped the city flag of its government symbolism and gave it back to the people who actually live here. The ones who fight, bleed, build, and still show up. You’ve seen the stars before. Now they come with warning.

You wear this through Bronzeville block parties and Logan Square walkouts. You iron it on before a budget hearing downtown or a union vote in a South Side warehouse. You bring it with you when the city sends cops instead of help and barriers instead of answers. It’s a message for aldermen, landlords, bosses, and anyone else playing God with people’s lives.

Don’t Tread On Us isn’t some lone wolf fantasy. It’s not about lone anything. It’s about collective fire. Shared risk. Organized resistance. It means your tent is protected. Your rent strike is honored. Your voice is backed. Whether you’re running a distro out of your trunk in Englewood or dropping off hot meals in Little Village, this patch has your back. Four stars, four corners of the city, one truth.

This patch belongs on denim that’s soaked through in snow and protest sweat. On jackets that’ve clashed with shields and cradled crying teens. On packs full of zines, med kits, and whatever else it takes to keep each other alive. It’s clean, sharp, and printed to shout. You gift it to the neighbor who held the line. You sew it on when you know talk isn't enough.

Strange Gang isn’t selling civic pride. They’re spitting it out and remixing the flag in our image. Don’t Tread On Us is more than a slogan. In this city, it’s a warning. And a promise.
