The story behind the shirt

Our connection to Steller's Jays

The Steller's Jay holds a lot of significance and meaning for us. We were always told that it was our great grandma's favorite bird. After she passed away in December 2008, we started to notice Steller's Jays more often. At first, they would just appear in our front yard. Years later, however, we noticed them on most of our hikes throughout Washington state.

In one instance, there was a single Steller's Jay watching us on the snowy shores of the frozen solid Reflection Lake at Mount Rainier. On another, we hiked the Wonderland Trail from Carter Falls to Narada Falls and stopped along the trail for lunch. There, a Steller's Jay made itself known before flying away. On yet another hike, Chase saw one in the parking lot for Sol Duc Falls at Olympic National Park while walking to the trailhead.

It wasn't just Washington either. Chase also noticed a Steller's Jay while hiking the Adams Canyon Trail in Layton, Utah. It popped out of the trees right in front of him before flying away.

After returning to Washington state in late 2022, we've witnessed Steller's Jays in our backyard on numerous occasions.

These are just a few examples of our many encounters with Steller's Jays in recent years. Every time we see one, it reminds us of our great grandma and great grandpa, and that perhaps they are watching over us.

Premium graphic tees

Our graphic t-shirts are made of high-quality and comfortable materials. The base shirt is side-seamed and tailored for a more fitted look.

This El Manor Ave Steller's Jay tee is printed in Utah as a light-weight digital print.. It features a full front graphic of a water-color inspired Steller's Jay. The neck tag is also printed for increased comfort (no itchy tags!).

Our graphics tees are premium quality and long-lasting, without the premium prices. That's the El Manor Ave promise.

Chelsea Simar

Meet the artist

The Steller's Jay graphic tee was designed by Chelsea Simar for El Manor Ave in 2021.

"Using airy, translucent watercolor strokes, this design is meant to capture the first breath of fresh air you take up in the cool mountains in the dead of winter. I created this imagery with Justin and Chase in mind, as they find deep symbolism in the Steller's Jay with their great grandmother."
