Our Story

Tuff Professional is for people who wear their heart on their sleeve and their soul on their shirt. It’s also for those of us who don’t mind people staring at our chests because, let’s face it, people are gonna stare.

We work in a tech firm where anything goes in terms of dress code. We see BlackMilk leggings on the regular; it’s not unusual for someone to walk down the hall in a Griz Coat (read: a grizzly bear onesie). One of our favourite colleagues wears a shirt featuring a cat. Riding a unicorn. Holding a laser.

We needed to find a way to stand out! To showcase our personalities and use our outfits to shout out loud – except silently.

Tuff Professional is our solution. You’ll see clothes with some of our favourite catch phrases from around the office, like:

Tuff Professionals is for anyone who likes to use their body as a canvas, but changes their mind frequently. It’s much easier to strip off a shirt than remove a tattoo, after all. Wear our design for a day, a week, or even months at a time – your skin will graft to the fabric and then it’ll be like a tattoo after all. No? Too gross? Well, buy another one of our designs and change your damn shirt then.

Have a crazy expression or shirt design you’d like to see? Let us know.
