Our Mission
Skip's Patriotic Tees began out of my deep connection to Daufuskie Island and a lifelong belief in conservative American values. In 2024, I saw a real need for an apparel shop where like-minded people could stand up for what they believe in, wear their pride on their sleeve, and make every purchase count for something bigger. As someone who's never been a professional shirt designer, I learned every step myself, determined to turn my small shop into a living support system for candidates who share those values. When you shop with me, you are not buying from a faceless corporation, you are joining a community rooted in southern heritage, supporting our island's traditions, and making a tangible difference in the future of America - one shirt at a time.
A Message From The Owner
John Schartner
Thank you for visiting my site. The purpose of this site is to raise funds for Winred and conservative MAGA candidates. I am not a shirt designer by trade; I own a small T-shirt shop on a small island whose main economy is tourism. I have designed shirts promoting MAGA conservative ideals that I am selling on this site, where 80% of the profits will go to Winred- the Donald Trump campaign. I can direct some money to down-ballot candidates who need help. We need to support all down-ballot candidates, so Trump has a dedicated base to work with. My goal is to sell as many shirts as possible until election day. From there, I will start working on selling more patriotic shirts so that we can have a huge amount of contributions for the midterm elections. The larger we raise, the more control we will have in guaranteeing the election of conservative candidates to support President Trump and Vice President Vance. If there are any shirt designers out there who would like to offer designs that you think will help raise funds, I would gladly accept them. We need to work together to change the dynamics of Congress back to Christian MAGA ideals.
Thank you, John Schartner
