The Promise to Return Tshirt

Hand-embroidered by women from Gaza, this soft black cotton T-shirt features Falasteen in bold Kufic script, stitched in the colors of the Palestinian flag. The letter Ṭuay (ط) is shaped as a key - a powerful symbol of the right of return and a future rooted in hope.

Framing the design is the traditional Irq al-Zaytoun (عرق الزيتون), the olive branch motif of Palestinian tatreez - an enduring emblem of peace, rootedness, and resilience.

Together, the key and olive motifs tell the story of hope and strength - a wearable tribute to heritage, courage, and the unwavering promise of return.
