The Stony Mountain Penitentiary and Elkhorn Residential School, both in Manitoba, mark significant chapters in Canadian history. While differing in their foundation—Stony Mountain, a correctional facility established in 1877, symbolized the government's control over resistors, especially Indigenous communities; Elkhorn, part of a larger system in the late 19th to early 20th centuries, aimed to forcibly assimilate Indigenous children, stripping them of their culture.

All products are great, but shipping and responsive interaction with Customer Service is atrocious. For two years running, this has happened. I could NEVER speak to a human and was always referred to an online, unresponsive interaction. Also, tracking with SHOP can be really problematic!!! Waiting two months to receive an order is absolutely unacceptable, as is an unresponsive, really bad Customer Service.
I ordered a number of T-shirts and a sweatshirt From Red Rebel Armor. The shirts arrived and reflected accurately, the images as seen online. What is most important about this brand, in my opinion, is the ongoing resilience and presence of indigenous voices. The clothing shows both the importance of indigenous cultures and their continued presence on Turtle Island as well as the ongoing story of the impact of colonization. Well made clothing with a valuable message.
I didn’t realize it was ironed on. I thought it would be sublimated.
Image exactly as shown, shirt feels high quality. Love it!
I had messed up the sizing on my order and once connected with their team everything was handled perfectly.
There did an exchange on sales items at no charge (even though I made the mistake) and were super accommodating.
Great organization to support as they have a big social impact focus on how the company is operated.
