The story behind it
The green ant is convinced he’s ten foot tall and bulletproof. Willing to take on opponents thousands of times his size, usually head-first, usually with no plan. Classic small man syndrome, just with mandibles.
Kids who grew up in the north know the dread. You’re halfway up a mango tree, feeling smug, then you bump a nest and suddenly regret every decision you’ve ever made. Gardeners know it too. One careless reach and you’re reminded who really runs the yard.
These days they end up in bottles of gin. Bush tucker, citrus notes, very trendy. He’s not thrilled about it. Someone suggests it’s good exposure and he replies, “Eat my arse. No way, bruss.”
His mantra is “Bite off more than you can chew.” Which sounds brave until you realise it’s the same shit house advice as “fake it ’til you make it.” Something your manager once said with a straight face, right before everything caught fire.
The green ant lives by it anyway. No strategy. No self-awareness. Just vibes, confidence, and teeth. It never ends well, but he keeps going.

Shipping & Returns
Printed just for you. Every order is printed to order in Brisbane, usually within 1-3 business days.
Once your order has been printed and dispatched:
- Standard shipping: usually 4–8 business days
- Express shipping: usually 3–6 business days
- Free standard shipping on orders over $100
Top End customers: If you're in the NT and in a hurry (an unusual combination), we recommend choosing Express Shipping. Standard parcels from Brisbane tend to take the scenic route via Adelaide before eventually heading north. Express shipping usually takes the red-eye directly instead.
Because each item is printed to order, we can’t usually exchange items ordered in the wrong size. Please check the size guide before ordering. Annoying, but also fairly sensible.
If your item arrives damaged, faulty or incorrect, get in touch and we’ll sort it out.
Sustainability
Every That’ll Do, NT item is printed only after you order it.
That means no piles of unsold stock, less waste, and fewer sad shirts sitting in a warehouse wondering where it all went wrong.
Designed in Darwin. Printed in Brisbane. Made when it’s wanted.

Great shirt, good quality, fantastic talking point (amazing how many people do not know of the bush curlew)
I bought this for my husband and he loves it. He has strangers commenting every time he’s out. It’s top quality and great fun.
Love it. Soft & Great fit. Currently in the NT with them singing every night.
Very good shirt. Totally happy with it.
great shirt. keen for more
Good quality and i love it!
Fantastic tees
Fantastic tees
Loved almost everything about this tshirt which I ordered for myself. Great communication, quick delivery, great print on a lovely soft cotton tshirt.
True to size except… its so long! Not sure how I’ll wear it, as its long enough to be a dress. Tucked in to jeans, half the print disappears!
Print maybe needs to be reduced in size. Photo shows size with print compated to my average size tshirt.
I absolutely love this design,living in FNQ l have curlews in the yard and bush ,funny l had one nesting in the yard it saw my t-shirt and its eyes grew huge and it went into protective mode🤣
Anyway congratulations on such a great product using quality material and a fun print .
Its a great T Shirt. Love the concept. I bought it for the curlew including the words "Sing like Nobody is Sleeping". I suggest adding an option to have the words in grey or white like the curlew, instead of red. I would find that more aesthetically pleasing and I think others might too 😊
Love this!!!!
Great….as advertised x
Love the T-shirt, high quality and fits well, very happy 👍
very helpful as i made a mistake on my order
When you know....you know
Bought as a gift for hubby, looks great and he gets asked were he got it from...we have curlews living in our yard so we are very familiar with thei quirks
Very good quality and very realistic Bush stone curlew. Love my tshirt.
Absolutely fabulous. Great design, great service amazing artwork and really soft, lovely fabric. It gets a lot of laughs whenever it is worn and wherever it goes. Thank you, I will definitely be back!!
Loved the shirts so much!
Excellent fast delivery,
Will be ordering again.
What a great tshirt. The fabric is great as is the graphic on the front. Purchased as a birthday present. I know my son-in-law is going to enjoy wearing this tshirt, especially as it has his favourite bird (Curlew)on the front.
wish i could get a v neck t shirt
Shit Hot 👍👍👍

Great T, supper funny and great quality
I was really happy with my curlew t-shirt. It was a birthday gift and the recipient was thrilled as well. It was lovely quality and the sizing was spot on as well.
A great, funny and typically iconic product of the NT. Got many laughs and you got many secondary sales from the t shirt I bought. Thanks.
