The Story Behind the Design

In Philippine politics, corrupt officials are called "buwaya" (crocodiles) - predators who devour public funds meant for the people. Our embroidered design captures this perfectly: a crocodile with its mouth open, catching falling money.

It's a visual metaphor every Filipino understands. It's a conversation starter. It's wearable activism.
