Who we are?

Shildo Designs began when a failed life coach (who once tried to motivate a houseplant) collided with a corporate lawyer with anger issues (banned from three conference rooms for yelling at a stapler). They met at a workshop titled “Breathing: Have You Tried It?” and bonded over two things: an allergy to seriousness and an uncontrollable urge to put nonsense on clothing.

At first it was a hobby—a wholesome weekend experiment powered by snacks and spite. Then the printer learned our names, the post office learned our faces, and Shildo matured into a full-time pain in the ass that produces almost no income but an alarming amount of joy. Our accountant is a solar-powered calculator. Our CFO is a seagull who screams “synergy” and steals fries. Morale remains high.

What we are for?

Shildo is our sanity leak in an all-too-serious world—a place to celebrate the dumb and rude little ideas that keep your brain from overheating. We make tees that look good, feel good, and whisper, “Reality is optional.” Wear them to meetings, dates, court (ask your lawyer), or while staring into the middle distance and rebranding your existential dread.

Why keep going?

Because the messages we get—from no one—say the shirts made a barista laugh, a random chuckle, a terrible Tuesday blink first. That’s the whole business plan.

Shildo: proudly transforming nonsense into cotton since “we’ll just try one design and see.”
